chore: make some fields required in perses replicated spec

* refactor(dashboard-v2): name props interfaces by component (Props → <Component>Props)

* feat(dashboard-v2): shared header chrome + confirm-delete dialog

* feat(dashboard-v2): dashboard settings drawer — general, variables/publish tabs

* feat(dashboard-v2): sections & panels — empty states, menus, theming, review fixes

* feat(dashboard-v2): dashboard header — inline-editable title, actions menu

* feat(dashboard-v2): container wiring + new-panel flow
