[FEATURE REQUEST] Ability to tile windows automatically

### The "Window-Tiling" PowerToy Here's an idea, add the ability to tile windows automatically. What I mean by that is when a window would open, it'll cover the whole screen but when another window would open, it'll cover the half of the screen automatically and the first app would also resize to the half of the screen. If the third window opens it'll open below the second window, resizing the second window to half vertically. And the new window would take place under the second window. It has been done before in some Linux window managers like "i3". And a lot of people really appreciate the ability to do that. ### Concept Shots I've prepared some concept shots to show that: ![Surface Book - 1 (24)](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/54409865/81105312-2f6a0900-8f2d-11ea-89be-db96ea9445ea.png) In the image above, a single window is opened. When the user wants open another window, they would need to click the start button or hit the start key on the keyboard. The Start Menu would be replaced with Power Run. The user would be able to select the desired app by typing it's name and selecting one of the results by using the arrow keys. Or just type the name and hit enter ![Surface Book - 3 (9)](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/54409865/81105842-07c77080-8f2e-11ea-9275-3cc5536915f8.png) ![Surface Book - 2 (17)](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/54409865/81105857-0d24bb00-8f2e-11ea-9ad8-ed2addcef7b6.png) And when more than two apps are opened: ![Surface
