Align auto layout positions with the canvas grid. fixes #7569 - #8747

Auto layout now snaps node coordinates, spacing, the selection-anchor translation and moved notes to the same configurable grid the GUI uses for manual moves (CanvasGridSize, default 16). Margins and spacing never round down to zero, so the first position always sits at least one full grid cell inside the canvas instead of on the grid origin.
