Add a new layout Columns #887

Description

This layout organizes windows in columns and allows to move/resize them in every direction. This layout is showcased here: https://jeancharles.quillet.org/posts/2024-05-02-Columns-a-new-XMonad-layout.html

I was reluctant to send this layout in a PR because I'm not sure I'd have time to maintain it outside my main configuration. But I've been told that some people might be volunteers to maintain it :slightly_smiling_face: So here it is.

Something that might be annoying is that the parameter to toggle between wide screen and small screen is currently hardcoded. As the layout lives in my config, this is not a problem for me but it might be for others. I can make it configurable if needed tho.
