[Feature Request] Add spot for widget at top of the home screen #562

Hi,

first off: this launcher is fantastic, amazing work (and even nicer to see it's open source!). The only thing keeping me from switching to it full-time right now is the lack of ability to add a widget somewhere on the "home" screen (i.e. the view with just the clock). My concrete usecase is that I'm using the widget from https://github.com/NightscoutFoundation/xDrip, and it is kind of important to me to be able to see my blood glucose at a glance, right on the home screen, without swiping.

I know you can just disable the space above the clock to always be shown your widgets, but IMO this results in a very cluttered home screen (and prevents you from having the familiarly-placed favorites at the bottom of the screen).

Similar to #450 (and solving both issues at once), I'd suggest adding a spot for a widget at the very top of the screen.

This feature would solve a lot of problems for different users. In my case I use a personal widget from kwgt that I use to register different numbers in my life and I still need to see it quickly and not with a gesture.

I propose to be able to place the personal widget at the bottom for better accessibility, so that even the big screen phones would be easy to use.
