Add "superpin" or "sticky" to hyprland as super + grave (floating and tiled windows move with workspaces)

This Lua script adds a "superpin" feature to the Hyprland window manager, allowing users to toggle a window as "sticky" by pressing Super + Grave. When enabled, superpinned windows automatically move to follow the active workspace, and their original floating position and size are restored when the window updates its rules.
