Easier placement of stages with positioning anchor

[Andy Goryachev]

This is just about convenience, since all the desired positions can be pre-computed and the Stage can be positioned using existing public APIs, right?

Subject: Easier placement of stages with positioning anchor

I've prepared a small enhancement for Stage that allows applications
to show a stage relative to a reference point, similar to how popups
work. This is a useful addition for a potential system tray support
(where windows are often placed relative to a system tray icon), but
also comes in handy for multi-window applications.

Comments are welcome.
