Description

Problem to solve

Currently Vuetify is lacking Side sheet from Material Design Ui component. I would like to be able to use Side sheet component in my own projects. It would save me time if this is available in the UI components so I could quickly build my projects.

There was a similar issue which has been closed in favor of v-navigation-drawer, but I don't think that's a viable alternative because of the lack of the activator slot. It would make for a bad pattern to implement most side sheets use cases.

Proposed solution

Add Sheets:side to Vuetify UI components (basically a v-navigation-drawer with the activator slot).
Alternatively just add the activator slot to v-navigation-drawer.
v-bottom-sheet covers a similar use case and has the activator slot.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing v-navigation-drawer and v-bottom-sheet components, focusing on how their activator slots and interaction behavior are implemented. Define the design and API for a side sheet, then verify that it provides the requested activator-based use cases and matches the linked Material Design guidance.
