Description

When using the original Atom Tree View package, you could press Cmd+Shift+P and see options to Delete/Rename files.

Nuclide's version doesn't have those and is a serious productivity killer.

Research direction
Investigate how Atom's original Tree View package implements command palette entries for rename/delete (e.g., key bindings and commands). Then examine Nuclide's file tree source code (likely in the 'pkg/nuclide file tree' directory) to understand its command architecture. Look for existing command registration patterns and determine where to integrate the new commands. Consider checking the single comment on the issue for any additional context.
