Description
### Describe the bug
Deselected Tile is still in Properties view.
### Steps to reproduce
- Have Properties and Tilesets view enabled next to a loaded map.
- Select a Tile in Tilset view and see its Properties. Keep it selected.
- On the Map, click on a Tile in ObjectLayer. See the changed Properties.
- Deselect the Object in the Map.
- The Properties are still shown, although the Object is deselected.
### Expected behavior
The Properties view should get "emptied" whenever Object / Tile gets deselected (both in Map and Tileset).
