Subject: [PATCH 2/6] feat: add ensureWidgetIds, default titles, and dynamic
 object/field dropdowns for dashboard widget config panel

- Add ensureWidgetIds() to auto-fill missing widget IDs when entering edit mode
- Set default widget title (e.g. "New Bar Chart") when creating widgets
- WidgetConfigPanel now accepts availableObjects/availableFields props
- Data source, category field, and value field use select dropdowns when metadata is available
- Field selectors disabled when no object is selected (disabledWhen)
- DashboardView passes metadata-derived objects/fields to WidgetConfigPanel

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] feat: upgrade object/field selectors to searchable
 Combobox, add panel switching tests

- Replace select dropdowns with searchable Combobox component for Data Source,
  Category Field, and Value Field when metadata is available
- Combobox supports real-time search, keyboard navigation (matching Airtable UX)
- Field comboboxes disabled when no object is selected
- Falls back to text inputs when no metadata is available (backward-compatible)
- Add DashboardWithConfig panel switching tests
- Update existing dropdown tests to match Combobox's role="combobox" structure
