Please test the docks branch

[Edward K. Ream]

The docks branch improves how Leo handles docks. This is #1318.

- Bug fix: The VR pane is moveable whenever --init-docks is in effect.
- The `@bool` @bool use-vr-dock  is no longer used.

- The VR pane is hidden for new windows.

The code changes are small, but this code must be considered experimental.

If you rearrange your docks, please test and report any problems.

I have just merged docks into pyzo (not devel). All seems well.

Important: Leo will use the dock layout in the first loaded .leo file for new windows.  So if you don't want all of pyzo's docks in new windows, hide them in your first-loaded .leo file.

I found some strange behavior when launching leo with a non-existent file on the command line. If I don't give any files on the command line or if I give the path to an existing file, then it is fine. But with the new file on command line, the tips windows appears and leo is still running, but there is no other window and I can only exit by hitting ctrl-c. This is on linux.

I used git bisect and found the bad behavior is introduced by commit 313f9e99af.

Let me know if you can't reproduce the issue and I can help more.

1. Delete cache.

2. Start Leo with only the one file from previous session.

I use @string central-dock-widget = body and @bool dockable-log-tabs = True.

My initial layout is the same dogs breakfast it has always been. :-)

Once I get everything arranged how I like it it is the same as before.

The vr pane has always been exactly the same as all the other docks for me. I can nest it, float it, move it wherever I like.

Thanks for this testing.  I'll fix it immediately.

Huh?  The new code is in Leo 6.1-devel.

That was so much fun to track down.

I am in the hospital still on my laptop. It was using a testbed I had installed via pip in pyenv.

Same result with the above.

Next up: a complete reinstall of my OS including a different distribution.

Back in an hour or so.

I love linux.

And I am back.

What did I miss?

Fresh install of OS and all critical apps. I even took the time to do a backup of my home folder because it was getting a little crufty.
