This fixes a regression from 079c086 where starting a drag outside the canvas was ignored. This happened because the new canvas widget configures the H/Valign properties to avoid expansion (simplifying a lot of other code), so the drag was outside the canvas widget itself - therefore, we need to attach it to a parent widget which contains the empty space. The changes are just relocating the gesture controllers, with a couple notes - We now need to translate the gesture coordinates to the canvas widget's space - The WindowMousePosition property is no longer needed since this was only for communicating between the two widgets The key press event handlers were also moved for consistency Fixes: #1908
This was a regression with the new canvas widget in Pinta 3.1
