Description of Changes
This PR fixes two scrolling-related bugs in the dataframe editor.
Firstly, after my PR implementing Refresh in the master branch, the scrollbars were no longer visible. To fix this, I changed it so that the view (the UI element) is created only once instead of every time that the data is refreshed. As before a new model (which exposes the data) is created every time that the data is refreshed.
Secondly, a bug already present in Spyder 5 caused the editor to jump back if you sorted the last column of a large data frame, as well as some more odd behaviour. The fix for this is to set the number of rows and columns loaded in the DataFrameHeaderModel using the information in the corresponding DataFrameModel. This is the bug reported in issue #21627.
This PR also add regression test for both these bugs.
