Windows's position should be fixed on start #169

When you double click on the shortcut of mintty the window started on a 
position.
If you open again the window, the position is different.
The position is not at the same place, it's like random.

I would like to have the possibility to fix the position whatever the 
current size of the window.

Because actually it's impossible to start mintty on full screen mode 
because the screen is not always at the same place.

The somewhat random starting position is standard Windows behaviour that's 
there so 
that multiple new windows don't completely cover each other, which would cause 
users to 
wonder where all their windows went.

Add the --pos option to the target field of your mintty shortcut to control the 
starting position, like so:

C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe --pos 0,0 -
