Add /new command equivalent to starting gemini cli #16835

Description

@zbynekwinkler

What would you like to be added?

Every other agent I've tried has this command (i.e. opencode, kilo, pi). I have not found any workaround for this except exiting gemini cli a running it again. The command /clear is not it, because once it is used, the chat is deleted from what can be used by /resume.

Why is this needed?

Being able to start a new chat session without forgoing the ability to resume the current session later is missing.
