Description
Description:
The onResize handler in ContextualbarResizable currently uses inline type casts and an anonymous function, which can be improved for better readability and performance.
Proposed Improvement:
Extract the resize handler into a named function with explicit ResizeCallback typing.
Wrap the handler in useCallback to prevent unnecessary re-renders of the Resizable component.
Motivation:
Improves type safety and ensures the component follows React best practices by maintaining referential stability for the callback.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the ContextualbarResizable component and related PR #38595, focusing on the current onResize handler and its Resizable usage. Done means the handler uses explicit ResizeCallback typing, is named, and has stable callback behavior without changing resizing behavior; run the relevant frontend checks afterward.
