PR: Update only current editor stack when moving tabs.

Fixes #4831

[ccordoba12]

Shouldn't we try to update all editor stacks? Or perhaps that's confusing...

@goanpeca, what do you think?

[goanpeca]

@ccordoba12 I dont really use this feature so I am not sure what users expect :-|

[ccordoba12]

Let's merge this for now because the bug is quite critical. I don't think users would expect that both windows should be synced when moving tabs.

I don't think users would expect that both windows should be synced when moving tabs.

Personally I'll prefer the both windows to be totally independent, not only the position of the tabs not to be synced, but also different files opened, and when closing a tab to only be closed in that window

Well.. that is not really the purpose of opening two editors... for that just open 2 instances of spyder

I agree with @goanpeca. @dalthviz is working on making all plugins to open a new window when detached from the main window, so we'll have to rethink this solution for Spyder 4.

@dalthviz, could you a open an issue about it, so we don't forget to address it? I think what we need to do is syncing tabs in both instances, so that when external windows are closed, tabs have the same order in the main window.

Normally I don't want all the files to be opened in two windows, and opening two different instances isn't the same It implies different console, explorer, find infiles.. etc
