Better way to make the annotation windows scrollable with the document

Hi Dileep,

it is great to see you so motivated to fix Okular annotation bugs.  But reading your
mails I am wondering whether you picked a good place to start.  On the one hand,
these scrolling annotation windows seem to be quite difficult to implement.
On the other hand, my original bug report is really about the fact that you can
maneuver annotation windows into a situation where you cannot close them
anymore.  I know that the bug report is not quite _written_ that way, but I think
that is how it should be read today.  Scrolling annotation windows could be a nice
thing to have, but nobody seems to need them urgently.  At least not me.

So maybe you could pick an easier issue to get you started?

Many thanks, and best regards,
Oliver
