Gitpod Pallete Command to Terminate and Launch a New Workspace for faster .gitpod.yml interation

[omenking]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

When you are iterating on a .gitpod.yml file you need to terminate and launch a new workspace.
The flow from terminating and launching the new workspace is clunky.

Describe the behaviour you'd like

It would be really nice if we had a pallete command that would terminate the current workspace and then launch a new workspace in the same context. eg. Gitpod: Terminate and Launch New Workspace

Describe alternatives you've considered

In my mind I was calling this "Gitpod: Open New Workspace on Same Context" 👍

If the context is commit, that's not quite right

I'd love to make this a gp CLI command, which takes the current .gitpod.yml (and dockerfile) and starts a fresh workspace with an explicit prebuild stage. The CLI would output the build logs (docker build, prebuild, tasks) to standard out and at the end (ready state) print a link so one can optionally go open the IDE. The workspace stops when I terminate the process.

We can then have IDE commands to run this. I think a code lens in the .gitpod.yml would be even better. Also, a notification when the config has changed could be useful for users to discover this.
