Edit: an open text edit stands down the Project-panel Clear redirect (#2227)

Edit > Clear follows panel focus: with the Project panel focused it
redirects to project.delete, which removes the selection at once when
nothing uses it. With a text edit open, that deletes the composition
being typed into — the user is working in it — and undo restores the
item but not the active composition. During a text edit the redirect
stands down (Clear does nothing) and the Edit menu's Clear entry is
disabled, mirroring how Deselect All stands down in #2096.
