Subject: [PATCH] gpui: Allow repositioning macOS traffic lights at runtime
 (#58169)

Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability
- [ ] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments
- [ ] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX
checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist)
- [ ] Tests cover the new/changed behavior
- [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable

Release Notes:

- N/A

Right now we can only set the traffic light position when creating a
window. This adds a public API so that we can update the position at
runtime, such as when titlebar height or layout changes dynamically.
