### The previous version in which this bug was not present was
_No response_
### Description
Items with a custom preview inside of a drop list that should be constrained either by constrainPosition or a dragBoundary appear to jump down for one frame when being dragged before constraint is applied.
### Reproduction
StackBlitz link: https://stackblitz.com/edit/stackblitz-starters-eyxb1gn5?file=src%2Fmain.ts
### Expected Behavior
Constraints are applied to drag preview on starting frame of drag.
### Actual Behavior
Constraints are not applied to drag preview until the second frame of the dragging.
### Environment

- CDK/Material: 19.1.2
- Browser(s): Chrome/Firefox
- Operating System (e.g. Windows, macOS, Ubuntu): Windows
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the linked StackBlitz reproduction and its src/main.ts entry point, then reproduce the drag behavior with a custom preview and either dragBoundary or constrainPosition in Chrome or Firefox. Done means the drag preview has its constraint applied on the starting frame, without a one-frame downward jump.
