Add option to zoom window when toggling float #1491

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Sometimes I want to temporarily pop a window out of a layout to the center of the screen. Right now the workflow I use for this is to toggle float, then use the Raycast almost maximise function.

It would be useful for achieving a workflow where I can see lots of windows on the screen and flexibly focus on one at a time when needed.

Describe the solution you'd like Having a setting to make this the default behaviour when toggling float for a window with alt-shift-T. It could be something like zoom window when toggling float checkbox. A related useful setting would be padding for zoomed window. I believe this would also adequately solve #416.

Describe alternatives you've considered Using third party tools to manipulate the window once it has been floated. I will probably create a Hammerscript shortcut to achieve this functionality if it is not in Amethyst.

I see that #1358 might solve this request, will close for now
