Handle float-only workspaces during session persistence.

When the last tiled leaf is removed, capture_session_snapshot records an empty layout while storing the float separately. validate_snapshot rejects that workspace with SessionError::Corrupt("empty workspace"). Therefore save_session_on_exit only warns and does not persist the session.

Define how a float-only workspace is represented during save and restore before relying on this teardown state.

1610:
Define and implement a consistent representation for float-only workspaces
across `capture_session_snapshot` and `validate_snapshot`, so removing the last
tiled leaf does not produce a snapshot that restore rejects as an empty
workspace. Ensure save and restore preserve the floated view.

Handle the empty tiled layout in panel creation.

After CloseView removes the last tiled leaf, the surviving float remains focused, but it is not part of the tiled layout. NewPanel and NewSplit then pass that float ID to split_focused_leaf, which returns false because the empty layout has no matching leaf. The action therefore creates no panel. Add a fresh-panel path for an empty tiled layout. This requires a separate change from float-only session persistence.

Update NewPanel and NewSplit to handle an empty tiled layout before calling
split_focused_leaf: create a fresh tiled panel instead of passing the focused
float ID to the split operation. Preserve the existing split behavior when the

Prune the owning workspace after an inactive float exits.

When the user switches workspaces before the float shell exits, reap_exited_shells can remove the float through remove_stashed_view(view). That path discards the float from its inactive slot but does not prune the slot when it has no layout leaves or floats. The active-workspace cleanup does not run, so the last float can leave an empty, dead workspace.

Make stashed-float removal identify its owning workspace, then apply the same empty-workspace pruning to that workspace. Do not use active_workspace_index() for this path.

Update the `remove_stashed_view` path used by `reap_exited_shells` to identify
the workspace that owns the stashed float, then prune that workspace when it has
no layout leaves or remaining floats and other workspaces remain. Do not use
`active_workspace_index()` for this cleanup; preserve the existing
single-workspace behavior.
