View Hierarchy absolute positioning should be dependent on `rendering_system` rather than `project.platform`

[timfish]

Problem Statement

Currently, the only way to enable absolute positioning for the View Hierarchy wireframe, is to choose a specific project type:

sentry/static/app/components/events/viewHierarchy/utils.tsx

Lines 44 to 47 in 5f9a15d

	export function getHierarchyDimensions(
	hierarchies: ViewHierarchyWindow[],
	useAbsolutePosition: boolean = false
	): {

sentry/static/app/components/events/viewHierarchy/wireframe.tsx

Lines 51 to 54 in 5f9a15d

	getHierarchyDimensions(
	hierarchy,
	['flutter', 'dart-flutter'].includes(project?.platform ?? '')
	),

This means there is currently no way to have absolute positioning outside of those project types.

Solution Brainstorm

Absolute positioning should be dependent on rendering_system. Maybe we should also check rendering_system.includes('absolute') so this can be overridden from the SDKs without having to update a list in Sentry?

We should also document this in the RFC. Currently it doesn't even mention absolute/relative positioning!

This sounds like a good solution! A list to update in Sentry isn't sustainable this approach makes a lot more sense. I'll follow up in reviewing your PR (thanks btw!)
