Fix component disappearing when moving from floating to new grid group

[mathuo]

Summary

Fixes GitHub issue #996 where component content disappears when moving panels from floating groups back to newly created empty groups using the addGroup() + moveTo() pattern.

Problem

When users moved panels from floating groups to new grid groups using:

const addGroup = props.params.containerApi.addGroup();
props.params.api.moveTo({ group: addGroup });

The component content would disappear, making panels appear empty. This only affected moves to newly created empty groups - moves to existing groups worked fine.

Root Cause

The issue was in the moveGroupOrPanel method. When moving panels to empty groups, skipSetActive: true prevented the component from being properly rendered in the destination group's contentContainer.

Solution

File: src/dockview/dockviewComponent.ts

Added logic to detect when the destination group is empty and force component rendering by setting skipSetActive: false:

// Check if destination group is empty - if so, force render the component
const isDestinationGroupEmpty = destinationGroup.model.size === 0;

this.movingLock(() =>
    destinationGroup.model.openPanel(removedPanel, {
        index: destinationIndex,
        skipSetActive: (options.skipSetActive ?? false) && !isDestinationGroupEmpty,
        skipSetGroupActive: true,
    })
);

Testing

Added comprehensive test in the "floating groups" section of dockviewComponent.spec.ts that:

• Reproduces the exact user scenario (floating → new empty group)
• Verifies component content remains visible after move
• Tests multiple panel scenarios
• Includes proper cleanup

Verification

• ✅ All existing tests pass (428/428)
• ✅ New test specifically validates the fix
• ✅ No regressions in existing floating group functionality
• ✅ Component lifecycle properly preserved during moves

Impact

This fix ensures that panels moved from floating groups to new grid groups maintain their component content visibility, resolving the user-reported issue where components would appear empty after the move.

Closes #996
