Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/326

Symptom
Weird album art artefact drawn on terminal when playback_window_position is set to Bottom as shown in this screenshot:

Blank space drawn on top left that matches the dimensions of the album art.
I guess some logic that allocates space fell through some branch checks.
You won't notice this if playback_window_position is set to Top.

Expected behavior
There should NOT be blank space on the top left.

To Reproduce

clean install of spotify_player with the image feature
start spotify_player to generate default app.toml
change playback_window_position to Bottom
start spotify_player

Log and backtrace
No obvious trace from logs, will provide if needed.

Environment

Application version: spotify_player 0.16.2
Application features: I build my spotify_player using cargo with these options:

cargo install spotify_player --no-default-features --features daemon,rodio-backend,streaming,lyric-finder,clipboard,image,notify

fastfetch output (truncated):

OS: macOS Big Sur 11.4 20F71 x86_64
Shell: zsh 5.8
Terminal: kitty 0.30.0

Additional context
Issue appeared since version 0.16.2.

Issue rating

Reproducibility: always (always/sometimes)
Impact: non-breaking (breaking/non-breaking)
- set playback_window_position to Top to avoid the issue for now
- can be work around by typing extra space so I can see what I typed
- scroll further up or down to see what is behind the blank space.
Size: entire app (entire app/specific feature)

@ed9w2in6 should be fixed by #328. Can you check out and run the branch locally to see if the fix works?
