phosh-private: Add set_exclusive_zone_anchor request

Sebastian Krzyszkowiak requested to merge dos/phoc:anchor into master

This allows to specify which edge should the exclusive zone apply to for surfaces that are anchored to opposite edges.

This is a PoC implementation of an idea meant to tackle the issue described at https://github.com/swaywm/wlr-protocols/issues/102

Also contains a fix for a bug in exclusive zone calculation noticed while working on it.

In the future I'm going to propose a MR adding this feature to layer-shell. Meanwhile, this will allow phosh to run on unpatched wlroots (phosh#422).

An alternative approach would be to simply hardcode the anchor and apply it to surface with phosh home namespace, but I wanted to try this approach first since I'd like it to eventually land in layer-shell itself.
