Description

Add a Cassowary algorithm to create an AutoLayout setup. A slice of Constraints should likely exist within the CanvasObject to facilitate the layout.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the Cassowary constraint solver algorithm and Fyne's existing layout system. Determine how to add a Constraints field to CanvasObject and implement the solver to compute positions and sizes.
