fix(editor): suppress spurious first-click element moves (#481)

When an item type is selected for the first time the properties dock
expands, causing the QGraphicsView viewport to shrink. Qt recalculates
scene coordinates and fires one or more synthetic mouseMoveEvents before
the user has actually moved the mouse.

The original code used a single-shot m_first_move flag in
CustomElementGraphicPart, which absorbed exactly one spurious event.
PartText and PartDynamicTextField had no protection at all.

Fix: compare screen-coordinate displacement against
QApplication::startDragDistance() (~4 px). Screen coordinates are
stable across viewport resizes, so the check correctly rejects
synthetic dock-expansion events while allowing genuine drags.
