Split screen on android not working #7020

What is the bug or the crash? What were your expectations and what actually happened?

Split screen is not working as intended.
When splitting the app while it's open, it does not scale the window properly. It hides behind the second app that is open.

If the app is opened in split screen mode from the start via an app-pair shortcut it does scale correctly, but some actions in app will make it go back to full scale and hide behind the second app again.

This makes it very hard to track routes and POIs while monitoring other equipment at the same time.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Start qfield as normal, then try to split the screen with another app. This will reproduce the wrong scaling.

Create and app-pair with Qfield and another app, close the app and start it from the pair and scaling will be correct.

Using the search bar for example, will make the app expand behind the second app again and not go back to split screen scale again.
