Add minimum distance threshold for selection

The drag selection is enabled immediately after dragging the cursor a little (1-2px). This causes issues when a row is expanded/collapsed first then clicking the checkbox as sometimes, the cursor is dragged in the checkbox. Then drag selection resets the previously selected rows. Here is a screencast of the issue:

  1. Expand a row
  2. Click and drag the cursor in the checkbox (1-2px)

The drag selection should not be enabled.

The Grid has a logic for enabling the drag selection after N-pixels of dragging. Could be reused in TreeList as well.

We are declining this request due to the current level of interest and demand.

However, if interest in this feature increases significantly in the future, we will reconsider its status and evaluate it again.
