Add a quick re-run button #300

What pain point is this feature intended to address? Please describe. For certain cell types (e.g., scripts, load dataset) that act as entrypoints into a vizier workflow, it's often necessary to re-run them. At present, this is non-obvious, requiring users to either:

  1. Click Edit Cell -> Click Save
  2. Click in the text field, type a character, click save

Describe the solution you'd like It would be useful if there was a nice, prominent way to re-run the cell. Some thoughts:

  1. A cell menu button with e.g. a refresh icon that would re-run the cell.
  2. Replace the Cancel/Save buttons with a "Re-run" button, at least for specific cells that need it..

Describe alternatives you've considered Continue needing multiple clicks to re-run a cell.
