feat: add FillSpace viewport-height spacer with repeating measureElement
Adds a reusable FillSpace component to dashgui that fills the remaining viewport height between an aboveRef and optional belowRef, with a scrollable middle section. Supports an optional measureElement that is repeated top-to-bottom to fill the leftover space below children (rows are rendered first, units fill height - contentHeight). Includes mock page, docs wiring, and screenshot references.

/**
|
||||
* Vertical spacer that fills the remaining viewport height between the content
|
||||
* above it and (optionally) a footer below it — useful for creating scrollable
|
||||
* middle sections in apps with fixed headers/footers.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @component FillSpace
|
||||
* @import dashgui/FillSpace
|
||||
* @defaultExport
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @prop {React.Ref} [aboveRef] - Ref to the element immediately above the spacer. It is observed (not strictly required) so the spacer re-measures when that element's height changes.
|
||||
* @prop {React.Ref} [belowRef] - Ref to the footer element below. Its height (plus top margin) is reserved so the footer stays visible without page scrolling.
|
||||
* @prop {ReactNode} [measureElement] - When given, this element is used as the measurement unit of the spacer: its height is read from a hidden copy and it is repeated top-to-bottom to fill only the leftover space below `children` (like a repeating ruler/row pattern). When omitted, only `children` are rendered.
|
||||
* @prop {number} [measureGap=0] - Vertical gap (px) between repeated `measureElement` units.
|
||||
* @prop {number} [minHeight=0] - Minimum spacer height in px.
|
||||
* @prop {number} [maxHeight] - Optional maximum spacer height in px.
|
||||
* @prop {boolean} [debug=false] - When true, draws a dashed outline around the spacer and a translucent overlay over the whole viewport so the measured bounds are visible.
|
||||
* @prop {ReactNode} [children] - Real content rendered at the top of the spacer. The repeated `measureElement` units (if any) fill the remaining space below it.
|
||||
* @prop {object} [sx] - Extra styles merged into the Box.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @behaviour Fills to the bottom of the initial viewport: height = viewport height − spacer's distance from the document top − reserved below height.
|
||||
* @behaviour The distance-from-top is read from the spacer's own position (document-relative), so every element above (including their margins and the parent's padding) is accounted for, and scrolling the page does not change the computed height.
|
||||
* @behaviour When `measureElement` is set, `children` are rendered on top and the units fill only `height − contentHeight`, so no units are shown once the content already fills the space.
|
||||
* @behaviour Re-measures on window resize and whenever the observed refs or the content change size (ResizeObserver), throttled with requestAnimationFrame.
|
||||
* @behaviour `debug` draws a dashed primary outline around the spacer plus a translucent full-viewport overlay.
