enhancementgood first issue

Description

I've read the FAQ.
The Xenia build used is from the master branch (not MLBS/AlexVS/Canary/pull requests, etc.)
This issue isn't for tech support (help with Xenia).
If this issue occurs in a specific game, I've done analysis to locate the faulty subsystem of the emulator and a potential reason in it.
I've checked if this issue hasn't already been reported.
My device meets the minimum requirements: https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart#system-requirements
(If building) I have read the building doc: https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/blob/master/docs/building.md

usually programs and emulators remember on which display they ran last time and also start up again on the same

please make that also for xenia

Domain: desktop
Issue type: feature
Difficulty: 3
Estimated time: 1-3 hours
Activity status: stale
Clarity: mostly clear
Prerequisites: Basic C++Window management APIs
Newbie friendliness: 40
Research direction: Investigate how Xenia initializes its main window, likely in xenia/app/main window.cc or similar. Look for display enumeration or window placement code. The feature requires saving the monitor index or display name and restoring it on startup. No existing PRs or comments provide guidance.
