fix(ui): Graph View layout broken for non-LR orientations with TaskGroups

[rsilvestre]

Summary

• Fix Graph View layout regression where TB/RL/BT orientations break when TaskGroups are present
• The elk.portConstraints: "FIXED_SIDE" layout option is now conditionally applied only for RIGHT (LR) direction, as it causes ELK.js to incorrectly spread nodes horizontally for other orientations
• This restores the correct behavior from Airflow 3.0.6

Root Cause

The elk.portConstraints: "FIXED_SIDE" option was applied unconditionally to both open TaskGroup nodes and individual task nodes. This constraint works correctly for LR layouts but breaks the ELK.js layout algorithm for TB, BT, and RL orientations when TaskGroups are present.

Test plan

• Deploy a DAG with TaskGroups (see reproduction DAG in Graph View layout broken for TB/RL/BT orientations when using TaskGroups (nodes spread horizontally) #61384)
• Verify Graph View renders correctly in all four orientations: LR, RL, TB, BT
• Verify LR orientation still benefits from the FIXED_SIDE port constraint
• Verify non-TaskGroup DAGs are unaffected

Closes #61384

Congratulations on your first Pull Request and welcome to the Apache Airflow community! If you have any issues or are unsure about any anything please check our Contributors' Guide (https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/contributing-docs/README.rst)
Here are some useful points:

• Pay attention to the quality of your code (ruff, mypy and type annotations). Our prek-hooks will help you with that.
• In case of a new feature add useful documentation (in docstrings or in docs/ directory). Adding a new operator? Check this short guide Consider adding an example DAG that shows how users should use it.
• Consider using Breeze environment for testing locally, it's a heavy docker but it ships with a working Airflow and a lot of integrations.
• Be patient and persistent. It might take some time to get a review or get the final approval from Committers.
