Add Debug Window (AKA revamped Breakpoint Manager) back to right-click menus on wires

Status: New

In previous versions of LabVIEW (including 25Q1), if you right-clicked on a wire, you could navigate directly to the Breakpoint Manager. With the merging of probes and breakpoints in 25Q3, the "Breakpoint Manager" has been replaced with the "Debug Window".  However -- there's no longer a right-click shortcut on wires to navigate to it.  I'd like to see this brought back, as it's a more intuitive location to find it than the View menu. Finding it for the first time after the switch wasn't obvious either, because of the name change.

(And yes, I'm aware that there's now a keyboard shortcut to directly access the Debug Window (ctrl+d) which I'll be using in the future, but I wouldn't expect most users to have this memorized.)
