Support pinning columns in the spend table #104080
Description
Coming from this issue: https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/688399, we want to support pinning columns in the spend table. This will look like:
Mockups
Current Spend Page View:
Hovering a column on the spend page:
Clicking the caret that shows up when hovering a column
When 'pin left' is selected for multiple columns
Implementation details
- We will store the pinned columns in a new search value in the search query:
left-pinned-columns:column1,column2andright-pinned-columns:column1,column2. This will allow search to persist the users pinned columns, per search key - We will start by pinning columns in the order they were pinned in
- The 'Hide column' button in the menu will remove the column from the current
columnslist

Current assignee @dubielzyk-expensify is eligible for the NewFeature assigner, not assigning anyone new.

I'm going to be OOO tomorrow, so I'll pick it up on Monday
@JS00001 do we want to implement resizable table columns first (at least the core functionality), given we probably want pinned columns to be resizable too?

hmm, @JmillsExpensify wdyt?

Yes, I think that's a good call. No immediate hurry on this, let's do it after resizable columns.

FYI, the Spend tab resizing PR is open - #105128
