The transient contexts (remoteBranches, subCommits, commitFiles) take
over the window of the context they are drilled into from, but until
then they carry a hardcoded initial window ("branches" or
"commits"). Under a gui.sidePanels config where those tabs aren't
their panel's first, no window of that name exists, leaving the
window-to-view map with entries for windows the layout never
produces. The previous commit made such entries harmless, but there's
no reason to have contexts point at nonexistent windows in the first
place; assign them the window hosting branches or commits instead,
which the config validation guarantees to exist.

When the config file changes and lazygit regains focus it reloads the
config, but the side panel window assignments, default views, tab
strips, and z-order were only ever set up on repo entry, so a changed
sidePanels wouldn't take effect until restart. Re-apply it from the
reload path: reassign windows and default views and restore each panel's
default tab.
The focused panel needs care: resetting it to its default tab would
leave the focused tab hidden behind that default tab, so the panel looks
unfocused even though its tab is selected. Re-focus the current context
so its tab stays shown and highlighted; only when the new config hides
the focused panel entirely do we move focus to the default side panel.
Tab strips are already refreshed via configureViewProperties.
Within a window the visible tab is whichever view sits on top in the
z-order, and onRepoViewReset establishes that z-order from a fixed list
that needn't agree with the configured tab order. After ordering the
views, bring each panel's first configured tab to the top so that, for a
panel whose tabs have been reordered, the configured first tab is the one
shown before the panel is focused. No effect on the default layout.

Replace the hard-coded side panel order, tab groupings, and window
assignments with values resolved from the gui.sidePanels config. The panel
order (SideWindows and the layout boxes), the tab strips (viewTabMap), the
per-context window names, each window's default view, and the jump-label
groups all now come from the config rather than from five separate
hard-coded lists.
A panel's window name is the name of its first tab, and panels not listed
in the config get their own window name so their views stay hidden instead
of overlapping a visible panel. Three small lookups translate config names
into views, tab titles, and contexts; a test keeps them in sync with the
set of valid names. The lookups are split this way (rather than one
resolver) because configureViewProperties runs before the context tree
exists, so the title/view lookups must not depend on it.
The config is applied to a repo's contexts via applySidePanelConfig on
every repo entry, including the cached-repo path: a repo's per-repo config
can differ from the previously visited one's, so each repo's contexts must
be (re)assigned from its own config rather than kept from when they were
first built.
With the default config this reproduces today's layout exactly.
