Problem

The toolbar's Pick button, and Playwright's own Pick locator button, picked on Browser's active page. A recording never changes that page, so after a click that opened a new tab the pick jumped back to the original tab.

Reproduce with Browser 21.0.0:

*** Test Cases ***
Test
    New Browser    headless=False
    New Page    https://robotframework.org
    Record Keyword    Pick In A New Tab

Click More info, which opens robocon.io in a new tab; the recording adds Switch Page NEW. Press Pick in the new tab: the pick runs on robotframework.org instead.

Fix

• A pick starts on the page whose toolbar sent the command: exposeBinding passes the page a toolbar command comes from.
• Playwright's Pick locator mode applies to the whole context and does not say where it was pressed. The toolbar notes the time of the last real press on every page, and the pick starts on the page pressed last. Focus does not tell: Playwright reports every page as focused.
• Counting and highlighting the picked selector run on the page it was picked in, not on Browser's active page (locatorOn).
• A selector already picked stays on its page; only a new pick moves to another one.

Tests

• Pick Starts On The Page Its Button Was Pressed On: Browser's active page stays the first one, and the pick command comes from the toolbar of a second window.
• Playwright's Pick Locator Picks On The Page Pressed Last: a press on the second window, then Playwright's Pick locator; the pick must arrive there.
• Both fail on 21.0.0 and pass with the fix, five runs each.
• Jest checks that a pick counts on its own page.

What changed in this PR

This PR makes recorder picks follow the page the user is working on rather than Browser’s active page, addressing picks that return to the original tab after opening a new one.

Changes:

• Tracks toolbar command origins and recent presses to choose the page for a new pick.
• Counts and highlights selectors on the page where they were picked.
• Adds multi-window acceptance tests and updates page-specific unit coverage.
