Description
We had code changes a couple years ago to add animation to the toolbox when entering the Monaco editor. It seems like this no longer works.
For repro:
- Go to Microbit
- Create a project
- Start in blocks and switch to JS
- No animation on the toolbox
PR that made the changes awhile back: https://github.com/microsoft/pxt/pull/6774

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Microbit: create a project in blocks, switch to JS, and observe the toolbox transition. Read PR 6774 and compare its animation changes with the current Monaco editor flow; the work is done when the toolbox animation runs during the switch again.
