Stefan Haller a929f34c84 Add gui.shrinkSidePanelsToContent option
Accordion mode expands the focused side panel, but when that panel has
little content (an empty Files panel, a Branches panel with only master)
it just fills the extra height with blank space. The same waste happens
for any panel that gets more height than it has content to show.

When this option is enabled, each side panel is sized to its own content
(plus a blank line, so it's clear there's nothing more below) rather than
to an equal share of the height. The height a small panel gives up flows
to the panels that have more content than fits; those grow up to their
content and then scroll, weighted toward the focused panel in accordion
mode so the two features compose. Only when every panel fits with room to
spare is the leftover shared out equally, regardless of focus: enlarging
the focused panel there would reveal no more content and would only make
the panels jump around as the focus moves.

The option is independent of expandFocusedSidePanel and off by default.
The status panel, and the stash panel when unfocused, keep their fixed
one-line height as before.
