Subject: [PATCH] edge-resistance: restore edge-resistance-window setting

Reintroduces the edge-resistance-window gsettings/dconf key, removed in
a previous refactor. When disabled, window edge resistance threshold is
set to 0, allowing free dragging. Defaults to true to preserve current
behavior.

+        If enabled, windows resist movement when their edges approach the

+        freely past one another without any sticky edge effect. Resistance
+        against monitor and screen boundaries is not affected by this setting.
