Pull request overview

This PR adds analytics instrumentation for two user actions: clicking the "Preferences" entry in the App menu, and creating new requests through three different entry points (sidebar "+" menu, tab list, and the "Add Request to Collection" modal). It defines a new AppMenuPreferencesClicked analytics event and introduces a makeRequestCreatedEvent helper that emits the existing requestCreated event with requestType and source properties.

Changes:

• Add AppMenuPreferencesClicked enum value and fire it from the Electron main process menu handler.
• Add makeRequestCreatedEvent factory in ui/analytics.ts and wire it into the sidebar request creation menu, tab list "+ HTTP request" action, and the add-request-to-collection modal.
• Convert AnalyticsEvent import in ui/analytics.ts from a type-only to a value import so it can be referenced at runtime.
