Need an easy to to know if a panel/group is floating

[ztolley]

I am building a layout in which I want users to be able to click on a control to make panel float and if floating provide an alternative button to dock the panel or hide the float button.

As it stands its easy to make a panel float with containerApi.addFloatingGroup(activePanel) but there is no easy generic way to know if the panel is part of a floating group or not while constructing the function for rightHeaderActionsComponent.

Both the panel and group api object expose a location property as an object:

type DockviewGroupLocation = {
    type: 'grid';
} | {
    type: 'floating';
} | {
    type: 'popout';
    getWindow: () => Window;
};

For example api.location.type for floating groups should be equal to floating.

I realize now though this may not be well documented, let me know if this is what you are looking for though?
