Always On Top #111

It would be nice to be able to switch Sointu to "Stay always on top" (of the DAW), esp. for the users coming from 4klang.

I doubt it's possible in Gio, but I'll investigate more. The Options for a window are here: https://github.com/gioui/gio/blob/fc6e51deba0edec4f01a5187b809772ab03fbb10/app/window.go#L1092

Hacking Gio is entirely possible, but I think it's hard to convince Gio maintainers to implement behavior without supporting it at least a few different platforms.

Afaik Gio also doesn't have any way to access the underlying HWND pointer, even for users who think they know what they are doing.

Good ideas welcome :)
