Fancy Zones: Allow for having a "default zone" when using "Move newly created windows to current active monitor" #11568

Provide a description of the new feature / enhancement

The feature ""Move newly created windows to current active monitor" is rather useful.

What may make it even more amazing allowing to define (in zone editor) for each layout one of the zones as "default for new windows". For example say I have one of those ultra wide monitors and I would like all my new windows to go to the rightmost zone, I can do that while defining my layout and marking said zone as default.

This feature would be of course, mutually exclusive with "Move newly created windows to their last known zones".

Of course this behavior would be configurable in the preferences of FancyZones.

Thank you for all the amazing work. Love FancyZones; such a productivity booster.

Any thoughts on this @crutkas? This idea would bring a feature that is popular with a lot of window managers in MacOS
