Zone Editor doesn't work on multiple monitors

See original GitHub issue

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.678]
PowerToys version: latest

Steps to reproduce

Open the zone editor on a multi-monitor system. Note that i have both landscape and portrait monitors on the same system.

Expected behavior

The zone editor will create overlays over the multiple monitors to allow you to create zones.

Actual behavior

The editor overlay is locked to the primary active monitor, cannot be dragged to other monitors, and doesn’t allow rule creation for anything but that active monitor.
