If we are designing our UI's windows from QML, it makes sense that we might want to configure how they're placed from the same place. Everything was already in place but for a few technical bits which this change adds. Signed-off-by: Victoria Fischer <victoria.fischer@mbition.io>
LayerShellQt
This component is meant for applications to be able to easily use clients based on wlr-layer-shell.
Here you can read about what the protocol does and how shells work: https://drewdevault.com/2018/07/29/Wayland-shells.html

Usage
CMake
To use it from a CMake project you'll need to:
find_package(LayerShellQt REQUIRED)
Then it will offer us the target LayerShellQt::Interface that we can link to to get access to this framework.
C++
You can use LayerShellQt::Shell::useLayerShell(); to enable it before any clients are created.
The class LayerShellQt::Window will give us access to surface-specific settings. We can get it by using LayerShellQt::Window::get(window) on whatever QWindow we need to tweak.
