Description

Renames the AI Assistant window to "Sidekick" and adds it to the default dock layout and view presets. The AI chat window is now visible by default (startVisible: true) and docked to the left panel. The useSeedInitialDockLayoutFromPreset hook has been moved to run after useComponentSearchV2Window to ensure the Sidekick window is registered before the dock layout is seeded.

Test Instructions

  1. Open the editor and verify the Sidekick window appears by default in the left dock panel.
  2. Confirm the window is titled "Sidekick" rather than "AI Assistant".
  3. Apply the "Default" and "All" view presets and verify Sidekick is visible and docked correctly in both.
  4. Verify that switching view presets does not cause the Sidekick window to appear in an unexpected position or state.

Additional Comments

The hook ordering change (useSeedInitialDockLayoutFromPreset moved after useComponentSearchV2Window) is intentional — the Sidekick window must be registered before the dock layout preset is applied, otherwise it won't be placed correctly in the left dock area.
