Implement Google Chrome-like grouped tabs

[dutzi]

Google Chrome Beta recently announced grouped tabs, which is pretty awesome.

Here's the gist:

Having such a thing within VSCode will be very useful IMO.

Having it integrated with the search, where a group is automatically created once you open more than one search result, should help with the tab clutter it ensues. Same for Peek references, automatic grouping of files within the same folders... I see many possibilities for it.

Seems very useful, I suggest allowing to group it by project / workspace as well, which would be really useful when working in linked projects (library project / host, monorepo projects, etc.)

I'd love to see something like that and the ability to collapse a group of tabs.
I often have a bunch of config files or templates that I need to keep open so that I don't have to look for them when I need them, but this eats up a lot of tab space.
