fix(e2e): restore testID='sidebar-view' on SidebarView

[diegolmello]

Summary

• Restore testID='sidebar-view' to <ScrollView> in app/views/SidebarView/index.tsx. Re-enables Maestro drawer flows that were timing out.

Root cause

Commit e7185612e "Add voice call item on sidebar" removed the <SafeAreaView testID='sidebar-view'> wrapper without re-attaching the testID. 5 of 13 Android E2E shards were failing every drawer-opening flow with Assertion is false: id: sidebar-view is visible.

Reference failing run: https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.ReactNative/actions/runs/25008420199/job/73243273302

Test plan

• Verified locally on emulator-5554: maestro test .maestro/tests/assorted/change-avatar.yaml passes the sidebar-view visibility step.
• CI: E2E Android shards 5/6/8/9 should now pass.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Tests
  • Enhanced automated testing infrastructure for the sidebar component to improve test reliability.
