refactor(win): native fzf flex layout

Use alternative preview layout instead of using a "transform",
simpler, and we don't need to take into account the hidden state of
the preview as well as decrease the minimum fzf version for native
fzf flex layout to 0.31 (instead of 0.46).

Has known issue upstream where if the layout changes upon resize
the hidden state of the preview is lost:

Closes #1527
