[WIP] Jupyter kernel restarts when the ipynb file is renamed

[Copilot]

Thanks for assigning this issue to me. I'm starting to work on it and will keep this PR's description up to date as I form a plan and make progress.

Original issue description:

Applies To

• Notebooks (.ipynb files)
• Interactive Window and/or Cell Scripts (.py files with #%% markers)

What happened?

When I rename a notebook I'm working in (by right-clicking the file in the left pane) the Jupyter server restarts. In JupyterLab you can rename a ipynb file while working on it and I expected the same behaviour in VSCode.
