Add a Dockable HTML Panel API for Plugins

orca.host.ui.create_dock_panel(html, title, width, height, on_message,
on_close, dock) hosts plugin HTML in a pane of the Plater's dock manager,
next to the sidebar, and returns a UiDockPanel handle
(post/show/hide/close/is_open). The arguments follow create_window(). The
panel uses the window.orca bridge of plugin windows, restores its position
and size from the saved window layout, hides with the Plater off the Prepare
and Preview tabs when floating, and is closed with its plugin; plugin panes
are removed in MainFrame::shutdown().

The web view hosting moves out of PluginPage into a shared PluginWebPanel
base: bootstrap page and swap to the plugin HTML, theme, element-default and
bridge scripts, window.orca message parsing, delivery to the page, and live
re-theming, also re-applied on every load after the swap. Pages tabs and
docked panels both derive from it, and it now owns the bootstrap page, base
URL and plugin-window bridge that PluginWebDialog uses. Pages tabs now
re-theme in place on a theme change instead of being reloaded, and a
window.orca call a host does not support is logged.

Includes a sample plugin (sandboxes/orca_dock_panel_plugin_any.py) and
binding and layout-helper tests in slic3rutils.
