Description
`yabai query --` supports three constraint arguments:
```
ARGUMENT
^^^^^^^^
*--display* ['']::
Constrain matches to the selected display.
*--space* ['']::
Constrain matches to the selected space.
*--window* ['']::
Constrain matches to the selected window.
```
But they cannot be used at the same time, only the first passed argument is accepted.
I want to apply multiple constraint, to achieve things like "get the first window at specific display":
```
yabai -m query --windows --display 3 --window first
```

Research direction
Start with the `yabai query --windows` command and trace how its `--display` and `--window` arguments are parsed and applied. Confirm the existing single-constraint behavior, then verify that `yabai -m query --windows --display 3 --window first` applies both constraints and returns the first matching window on display 3.
