Description
Current Hyper behavior is to open it's window in the same position when it was last closed, it would be nice to have an option to open the Hyper with it's window always in the middle of the screen, both vertically and horizontally.
If I find the time for this, I might try to implement such optional behavior. Is this something that makes sense to be part of Hyper core or a plugin is better suited? IMO, it should be core, but I'll let you owners decide before doing anything :)

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by locating Hyper's window creation and positioning logic, then determine how an optional centered-position setting should work across the supported desktop platforms; done means the option opens the window centered both vertically and horizontally without changing the default behavior.
