Aux window: allow detaching views and panels

<!-- ⚠️⚠️ Do Not Delete This! feature_request_template ⚠️⚠️ --> <!-- Please read our Rules of Conduct: https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/ --> <!-- Please search existing issues to avoid creating duplicates. --> <!-- Describe the feature you'd like. --> I would like to detach bottom panel tabs (especially "terminal", but also "problems" and others) into a separate window that I can place on my secondary monitor, **but** still be attached to the same main window. Possibly the whole bottom panel could be detached as a single window, like developer tools in chrome. These now take valuable screen space in my main window, but if e.g. a monitor session is detached and attached to a different main window, ctrl-clicking filenames in error messages will open the file in that window, and not in my editing window, which defeats the purpose. **Note** This feature request is **only** about detaching bottom panels, specifically for dual monitor use. Please don't close this as a duplicate of #34442 (a 2017 issue which discusses using VS code's terminal as a standalone replacement for windows terminal apps, and is never going to get implemented so should be closed), nor #10121 (a 2016 issue which discussed a more general issue of moving all panels, primarily editor tabs, to new windows and was closed due to acrimony).
