Add shortcut to make all windows fill zones in FancyZones #21154

Description of the new feature / enhancement

It would be nice to have a shortcut that would spread out all the windows on the screen to available zones (filling out empty ones first) in FancyZones.

It could even be made "smart" so it tries to place the windows according to the current window width/size. Tall, narrow windows (e.g. messenger style windows) could fit in zones of that size. Browsers and windows currently maximized could try to get fit into the largest possible zone on the screen etc.

Scenario when this would be used?

E.g. I have a screen where I have split it into 6 small zones. These I use for a lot of "chat" windows but manually moving them to a zone one by one takes time. Here a quick shortcut would be nice.

Additionally to that it would be great if it could be all windows from one app - e.g. all opened outlook email windows spread around the zones
