Floating toolbars and subwindows must hide on main-window minimize #70

@MarkBedrock

Description

@MarkBedrock

Summary:
If a toolbar or dock is undocked and floating as its own window, minimizing the main Phoenix window does not hide/minimize the floating window. This becomes more important as the UI grows (e.g. Analysis Window, inspectors, etc.).

Expected:
• When the main Phoenix window is minimized:
• All registered floating toolbars/docks/aux windows should hide or minimize with it.
• When the main window is restored:
• Those windows should reappear in the same positions they had before.

Actual:
• Main window minimizes, but floating toolbars remain visible as independent windows.

Notes / 4.2 linkage:
• This should be solved as part of the 4.2 multi-window infrastructure (Analysis Window).
• Likely implementation:
• Add a WindowVisibilityController that tracks auxiliary windows.
• Hook MainWindow::changeEvent(QEvent::WindowStateChange) and:
• On minimize → hide/minimize registered windows, recording which ones were visible.
• On restore → re-show only those previously visible windows.
