[FEATURE REQUEST] Graph anchor point #1153

Description

@RadekPilich

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The problem is that the graph defaults to a left upper corner when the project is opened or when the window is resized. This is not ideal if we use Element in the background / on the side rather than a primary workspace. Often in such situations, we might have a primary point of control / feedback on the graph and we would prefer the graph view to center on this point whenever a window resizing event occurs.

Describe the solution you'd like
Make it possible to create an "graph anchor point". Possibly via Edit menu - Create graph anchor.
That would grab the X/Y coordinates of the center point of the currently visible graph area and store it into the project.
Then anytime the project is loaded or the window is resized, the graph would center on this anchor point.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Initial idea was to "store the graph position" on project save. I believe the center anchor point is the actual practical execution of that, although they felt as a different thing initially.
