Description
Briefly describe how the feature should work
When dragging a window to the top/bottom edge of the screen (not in the corners) it should maximize the window vertically. This behavior exists on the windows tiling application too.
Explain why this feature should be added
I run an ultrawide screen, fully maximising is often too much, it's generally more useful to have the main window sit in the middle but maximized vertically.

Research direction
No files or tests are named; start by locating the extension's existing drag-to-edge and corner tiling entry points. Implement vertical maximization for top- or bottom-edge drags away from corners, while preserving current corner behavior, and verify the result on an ultrawide display.
