Allow specifying explicit desired screen

If the window position is not specified, which is a reasonable thing to
do when using the layer shell protocol, setWidth() and setHeight() can
unintentionally change the screen() to the wrong one.

This change adds a setDesiredScreen() function so it's harder to shoot
yourself in the foot while using the layer shell protocol.
