### Limitations

- No resizing
- Wayland only (though X11 always has window decorations)

### Technical

This PR adds three APIs to gpui.

1. `show_window_menu`: Triggers the native title bar context menu.
2. `start_system_move`: Tells the compositor to start dragging the
window.
3. `should_render_window_controls`: Whether the compositor doesn't
support server side decorations.

These APIs have only been implemented for Wayland, but they should be
portable to other platforms.

Release Notes:

- N/A
