[electron-chrome-extensions] popups in incorrect place when drawn with frame on linux

[Kilian]

if the browserwindow has a frame on linux (at least), then popups are placed at the wrong height and overlap the icon:

Ok, so the issue is that when the bounds get returned:

• height is the inner height (excluding the top frame, same as doing document.documentElement.getBoundingClientRect())
• x is the position at the top of the frame

getContentBounds returns the same values so is not a solution. If we can know the bottom offset of the window then we can use that together with the (consistent) height to find the right offset.

Ok so this is a known issue: electron/electron#3183

@samuelmaddock would you be willing to make POSITION_PADDING configurable so I can adapt it depending on the platform?

[Kilian]

@samuelmaddock the difference between getBounds() and getContentBounds() is 0 on linux, so this issue is not solved. (I previously mentioned this here: #121 (comment) )
