[Feature Request] Allow opening the app in multiple windows #96

Description

@maddada

I didn't do this one because not requested enough yet and would add complexity/need testing + I wouldn't use it personally.

Make it possible for the gpui app allow being launched multiple times on macOS so i can place different windows on different screens for example

also please add a File -> New Window action in the menu bar and add this to the command palette and add it as a hotkey

also restarting the app should restore the different windows to the size/location they were at and restore each window's expansion/collapse of the sections/projects/groups of the sidebar

please address any issues you foresee from this change

1 thing to keep in mind is that we sync the expanded/collapsed groups, projects & sections in the sidebar of the gpui app now through gxserver I believe. We shouldn't do this. We should only load the expanded/collapsed from gxserver when we load the new window but we should allow each window to have separate state for expansion/collapse of groups/projects/sections
