Description
### Describe the bug
When having a TabView with `CanDragTabs="True"` the event `TabDroppedOutside` is often triggered when performing a double-click while slightly moving the mouse. The movement can be really small and not at all as large that it should trigger a drop.
### Steps to reproduce the bug
Having a TabView with `CanDragTabs="True" and doublelicking on the tab while slightly moving the mouse.
Can be triggered on any of the tabs.
### Expected behavior
The event `TabView.TabDroppedOutside` should only be triggered when dropping at a distance from the initial click.
### Screenshots
Video displaying the behavior. When dragging and dropping the event is only triggered when dropping at some distance from the first click, but when doubleclicking only a slight mouse movement will trigger the event.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in a WinUI 3 TabView with CanDragTabs="True", using both a double-click with slight movement and an ordinary drag-and-drop. Compare when TabDroppedOutside fires in each path and inspect the control's drag-distance handling. Done means small movement during a double-click no longer triggers the event, while a sufficiently distant drop still does.
