Currently users can only copy individual watch expressions or values one at a time via the context menu. Selecting multiple rows with Ctrl+A and Copy only captures values (or a flat list), losing the Expression → Value mapping. This adds a new 'Copy All' context menu action that copies all watch expressions as name: value pairs, one per line — ready to paste into issues, chat messages, or notes when providing debugging context.

Summary
Fixes #306116.
Adds a new Copy All context menu action to the Watch view that copies all watch expressions as `name: value` pairs, one per line.
Currently users can only copy individual watch expressions or values one at a time via the context menu. Selecting multiple rows with Ctrl+A and Copy only captures values (or a flat list), losing the Expression → Value mapping. This action makes it easy to export the entire Watch list with full context for debugging reports, issues, or chat messages.
Example output
```
user.name: "Alice"
user.age: 30
items.length: 5
```
