Feature: show code side-by-side #69

Description

@poef

You can only edit code in one component at a time, while sometimes I want to copy/paste things from one component into another. It would be nice to be able to open an extra editor with a specific piece of code next to another.

My idea is that each editor only takes up a portion of the horizontal width of the screen. To the right you can show previews, but also add a new editor. I would like this to be recursive, so I can add another editor next to that again, etc. If you run out of space, either collapse the left most editor(s), or add a horizontal scrollbar.

I'd like this state (which editors / code I have opened next to each other ) to be kept when switching between components, untill I manually close the editors again.

Stretch goal: parse the main (leftmost) editors code to automatically show a list of other components/parts that are referenced in that code. This allows you to quickly delve into existing code, without having to search for other parts.
