refactor(dashboards): move the heatmap chart to its cleaned-up location

The heatmap layer was written before the V1 cleanup moved the shared chart code
out of container/DashboardContainer/visualization into lib/visualization, so it
landed in the old tree and was the only thing left there.

- chart, utils, group-legend hook and tests move to lib/visualization/charts/Heatmap
- HeatmapChartProps joins the other chart props in charts/types.ts, alongside
  TimeSeries/Bar/Histogram/Pie; the chart-local types file held nothing else
- the heatmap tooltip, its two lists, content helpers and styles move into
  Tooltip/components/HeatmapTooltip, so the tooltip root keeps only the shell
  and the flat per-chart tooltips

Also drops a dead `timezone` prop Heatmap passed to ChartWrapper, which does not
take one — a type error the unresolvable ChartWrapper import had been masking.
