Research direction

Start with the Core repro PR and the standalone repro to observe how anchorAlignment is passed and how the board position is calculated. Confirm that anchorAlignment="top_left" places the board's top-left at boardAnchorPosition, while preserving the deprecated prop behavior if applicable.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

anchorAlignment is documented as the preferred board anchoring prop but the runtime reads only deprecated boardAnchorAlignment.

Expected: anchorAlignment="top_left" positions the board so its top-left is at boardAnchorPosition.
Actual: the value is ignored.
