/// <summary>
/// Makes a UI panel draggable. Attach to the panel itself: it follows the pointer from any of the panel's
/// non-interactive surface (title bar, padding, labels, background) but ignores presses that begin on a
/// widget - a <see cref="Selectable"/> (toggle, slider, ...) or a <see cref="UiPointerSurface"/> (the
/// colour-picker field) - so those keep their own click/drag behaviour. It keeps a slice of the panel on
/// screen and raises it above its siblings while interacting.
///
/// Works under any canvas scale (it tracks the pointer in the drag area's local space and applies the
/// movement delta) and under any anchor/pivot (the on-screen clamp is derived from the panel's real
/// corners in its parent, not from a fixed top-left assumption).
