Calling _toggleBodyListener inside render() causes side effects on every render cycle. React StrictMode double-invokes renders in dev, which leads to unpredictable listener state. Also, listeners were never cleaned up on unmount when isOpen was true, causing a leak. Move listener management to componentDidMount, componentDidUpdate (only when isOpen changes), and componentWillUnmount. Fixes webpack#8148

Summary
_toggleBodyListenerwas called insiderender(), which runs on every re-render, not just whenisOpenchanges. The listeners don't actually duplicate (_handleBodyClickis a stable class field reference, soaddEventListenerdeduplicates by reference), but side effects inrender()break React's purity contract. React StrictMode double-invokes renders in dev, so listener state becomes unpredictable. There was also no cleanup on unmount - if the sidebar was open when the component unmounted, thetouchstartandmousedownlisteners onwindowwould just stay there.Moved listener management to
componentDidMount,componentDidUpdate(only whenisOpenactually changes), andcomponentWillUnmount.Fixes #8148.
