Describe the bug
I'm having a side panel (position: "right") and it is now the full screen height.

To reproduce
just run Ironbar

Expected behavior
Panel should occupy only vertical space it needs. Just as in GTK3 version.

System information:

Distro: ALTLinux p11
Compositor: Pinnacle
Ironbar version: 0.18.0

Configuration

Config

  - name: "system-monitor"
    position: "right"
    anchor_to_edges: false
    orientation: 'h'
    height: 80
    start:
    - type: label
      label: "foobar"

Additional context
I see the relevant GTK properties in the Inspector: halign and valign. But cannot modify it through CSS nor config.

In 0.17.1 the panel was allright: occupying only right top part of the screen. Now it is on the right top-to-bottom.
