Dragging items between and within columns in project boards

[bartvdbraak]

Description

Our triagers reported the following user experience issues with Project boards after updating to Gitea 1.23.1:

• Project boards are now displayed as a table where the height matches the tallest column. Previously, they were constrained to fit within the browser view, with individual scrollbars for each column. This change makes dragging items between columns—especially from the bottom of one column to the top of another—more difficult.

• (resolved) Moving an item laterally within a project board column appears to trigger an event, when it should likely just update its column placement.

Gitea Version

1.23.1 built with GNU Make 4.4.1, go1.23.5 : bindata, timetzdata, sqlite, sqlite_unlock_notify

the second one (moving issue in column) has been resolved

#29311 is a follow-up design to what GitHub did.

Are you sure that GitHub also creates such useless noise when moving the issue in the same column?

I think I'm wrong. Moving in the same column with different positons should not trigger a comment. #33496

The first one is still unresolved (ps: actually I haven't really looked into it, if anyone has ideas, welcome to help, thank you!)
