This commit adds a new message handler to the XBlockContainerPage
CMS view, that allows the MFE to send a signal to the IFrame
and scroll to a specific XBlock.
This feature introduces functionalities to improve XBlock interactions within iframes:
* Add styles that adopt default styles for Split Test which renders chromless template via iframe in MFE Authoring.
* When the isIframeEmbed option is enabled, the XBlock sends a postMessage to the parent window. When sending such a message, the standard link transition is cancelled and the transition is carried out in MFE Authoring.
Iframe reload optimizations for various xblock related actions. Added some improvements related to scrolling to the current xblock. Fixed behavior of the xblock action dropdown list.
This introduces improvements for XBlock interactions within iframes:
* Add default styles for Library Content that renders in the iframe in the new Studio unit page
* When the `isIframeEmbed` option is enabled, the XBlock sends a `postMessage` to the parent window. When sending such a message, the standard link transition is cancelled and the transition is carried out in the MFE.
This is part of the effort to support the new Studio Unit Page embedded in the authoring MFE. It introduces several changes to improve the handling of XBlock events and the user interface in the CMS. The most important changes include adding event listeners for message handling, refining the postMessage logic, and updating the CSS for better visual consistency.
On the Course unit page after merging the PR with new iframe for xblocks, an issue with infinite loading of the iframe appeared if the unit/xblock has tags. This PR solves the problem with the error that appeared. Addition and processing of the tagging functionality is planned in future PRs.
The first attempt at creating a new MFE-driven page for Studio Unit
rendering involved rendering each XBlock separately in its own iframe.
This turned out to be prohibitively slow because of the many redundant
assets and JavaScript processing (e.g. MathJax) that happens for each
XBlock component.
In order to mitigate some of these issues, we decided to try a hybrid
approach where we render the entire Unit's worth of XBlocks at once on
the server side in a Studio view + template, and then invoke that from
frontend-app-authoring as an iframe. The frontend-app-authoring MFE
would still be responsible for displaying most of the interactive UI,
but the per-component actions like "edit" would be triggered by buttons
on the server-rendered Unit display. When one of those buttons is
pressed, the server-rendered UI code in the iframe would use
postMessage to communicate to the frontend-app-authoring MFE, which
would then display the appropriate actions.
To make this work, we're making a new view and template that copies
a lot of existing code used to display the Unit in pre-MFE Studio, and
then modifying that to remove things like the header/footer so that it
can be invoked from an iframe.
This entire design is a compromise in order to do as much of the UI
development in frontend-app-authoring as possible while keeping
XBlock rendering performance tolerable. We hope that we can find
better solutions for this later.

Make the edit button on a container page for a non-unit block
(i.e. an individual text, problem or video block) open the new
editor when the relevant flag is enabled.
* feat: make tagging feature enabled by default
* fix: use the correct flag for tagging enabled
* fix: make compatible with other changes from master
* fix: more compatibility fixes
* fix: show tag counts at all levels of the outline, not just units
* chore: typo
* test: fix counts in test suite now that tagging is on by default

Exposes the hide_from_toc xblock attribute so course authors can configure it as a section visibility option in Studio. Before this change, the Hide from TOC functionality was mainly used by OLX components. Hence, it wasn't available for configuration through the Studio UI. Still, its implementation existed in the platform and could be used by setting the attribute: hide_from_toc=true as part of the OLX definition.

* style: drawer-cover color updated for all tagging drawers
* feat: Update TagList component when a tag is updated on Manage tags drawer
* feat: Refactor TagCount to be able to refresh the count
* feat: Sync tag count in units
Refactors and reworks the LibraryContentBlock so that its
sync-from-library operations are asynchronous and work with
V2 content libraries. This also required us to make
library_content block duplication asynchronous, as that
involves syncing from the source library.
For the sake of clarity, this PR includes two major method renames:
* update_children(...) -> sync_from_library(...)
* refresh_library(...) -> sync_from_library(upgrade_to_latest=True, ...)
an an XBlock HTTP handler rename:
/refresh_children -> /upgrade_and_sync
There are still a couple issues with import or duplication
of library_content blocks referencing V2 libraries other than
latest. These will be resolved in an upcoming PR.

Since the Copy/Paste functionality has not been implemented for
ContentLibraries yet, the "Copy to Clipboard" button should not appear
in both the ContentLibrary page.
Uses the updated styles for the notification based on the new designs.
Includes a button to open view the files directly in the notification.
This also fix a bug where the notification was not appearing when paste
a whole Unit.
