API to get prompt's *starting* Y coordinate, for external tab-completers that must scroll terminal and thus relocate prompt position

Description of the new feature/enhancement

PSFzf exposes an alternative to MenuComplete using fzf's fuzzy matching menu. Just like MenuComplete, fzf's menu requires X lines of space beneath the prompt, so it may scroll the terminal upward when activated. When it returns, PSReadLine needs to be informed that the prompt has moved upward to a different Y position.

When the prompt is multiple lines long, this Y position is not the same as (Get-Host).UI.RawUI.CursorPosition. RawUI shows us the end of the prompt, but not the beginning. The beginning is the value which must be passed to InvokePrompt.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

There are hacks to compute the prompt height, by overriding function prompt to capture the Y coordinate before the prompt is rendered. But the correct solution is for PSReadLine to expose either:

• GetPromptStartPosition to get the Y coordinate of the prompt, so fzf can subtract the number of lines it scrolled the terminal and pass the result to InvokePrompt
• MovePromptYPosition if you really don't want to expose the above. This would accept a positive or negative number and add it to the prompt's Y position.

Pseudo-code to show how this might work:

Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Key Tab -ScriptBlock {
  $cursor_y = (Get-Host).UI.RawUI.CursorPosition.Y # end of prompt, to account for multi-line prompts
  $prompt_y = [PSReadline]::GetPromptStartPosition().Y # start of prompt
  InvokeFzfMenu # This may scroll the terminal to make space for the menu, and will thus restore cursor position to a new (higher) Y coordinate when finished
  # How much did cursor position move?  Add this delta to prompt's start position
  $new_prompt_y = $prompt_y + (Get-Host).UI.RawUI.CursorPosition.Y - $cursor_y
  [PSReadline]::InvokePrompt($null, $new_prompt_y)
}
