File Renaming UX Improvement

[Vinfall]

What's the Problem?

For now when renaming a file/folder in Files, when file name is limited to not exceed the width of the Name column, which can make the file name less unreadable than the original Windows File Explorer (I hope it's called that...).

A simple contrast between the two explorers:

1. Files
   

2. Windows File Explorer
   

Solution/Idea

Mimick the behavior of the original Windows file explorer, i.e., let the file name exceeds the Name column when renaming, to improve file name readability.

Alternatives

1. Show a seperate prompt window to enter the new file name (Dolphin by KDE does that IIRC).
2. When renaming, don't let the file name exceeds the Name column, but show multiple lines within the set width (this method would be unnatural and hard to deal with when renaming a file in the middle).

Example File Structure:

-------Name column------------|----whatever-column----------|
.
├──A folder
├──Random file
├──The file to rename
└──Another random file

Example File Renaming UI:

-------Name column------------|----whatever-column----------|
.
├──A folder
├──Random file
├──The file to rename (which
|  has a long name like this)
└──Another random file
