refactor: migrate source from Flow to TypeScript

Convert lib/*.js (Flow) to TypeScript (.ts/.tsx) and replace the Babel+Flow toolchain with tsup (CJS+ESM+auto-generated .d.ts), keeping webpack for the UMD bundle. Types are now generated from source instead of hand-maintained in typings/index.d.ts, eliminating Flow/TS drift.

Public API is unchanged (minor-version-safe): CJS keeps module.exports===Draggable plus .default and .DraggableCore (PR #254/#266); UMD bundle still exposes global ReactDraggable with react/react-dom externals; generated .d.ts matches the previously-shipped surface and the unchanged typings/test.tsx compiles against it. DraggableCore children stays React.ReactNode in the public types (the internal Flow type was ReactElement) with a regression guard in test/typeCompat.

Adds tsup.config.ts, root tsconfig.json, eslint @typescript-eslint, native-TS vitest, and extra unit tests (198 pass, up from 131). No version bump or CHANGELOG change.
