Description

At the moment you can't rename tabs in CyberChef it instead displays the data you are working on in the tab name. It's easy to lose track of what data is what when you have multiple tabs open.

A feature could be added so you can assign tabs persistent names regardless of the contents of them.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Start by exploring the CyberChef source code, particularly the UI components in the `src/web/` directory. Look for where tab titles are displayed (likely in a tab container component) and how tabs are managed. Focus on the function that sets the tab name based on the current data; adding a rename feature would involve providing an input or option to override that name. Check for any existing UI patterns like double click to edit. Consider linking to a prototype or discussing with maintainers about acceptance criteria.
