Niels Sascha Reedijk 6758018a21 HaikuBook: add remaining layout class documentation
This is the final contribution to #15368

* Tried to share more documentation in the various BLayoutBuilder classes
* Add missing GridView, GroupView, SpaceLayoutItem
* Also added AbstractLayoutItem, but hide the actual documentation behind
  an `INTERNAL` conditional block. This block identifier can be used to
  document parts of the API, to then hide them during a regular Doxygen run.
* Do some cleanup on other layout classes; add missing members, etc.
* The actual generated BLayoutBuilder::* html is a mess. I should investigate
  this at a later time. Especially the copied members seem to mix type
  definitions with member documentation. It is odd. Not unlikely to be a
  Doxygen bug.
* The general documentation for the layout system could use an overhaul as
  well, but this is for later.
