Suggestion: Reduce the minimum window size constraint #12816

Description

I often need to open multiple GitButler windows at the same time and tile them across a single desktop. However, the current minimum window size limit of 1000 × 600 causes significant overlap on my 14" MacBook Pro display.

.min_inner_size(1000.0, 600.0)

.min_inner_size(1000.0, 600.0)

I understand that multiple application windows aren't officially supported yet, but the current minimum window size constraint does feel somewhat too large. For example, on my 1800 × 1169 Mac display resolution, if I want to tile four GitButler windows across the screen (one in each quadrant), I would expect each window to support a size of about 888 × 553.

Some calculation formulas:

WIDTH=1800
HEIGHT=1169
MENUBAR=39
GAP=8
(WIDTH-GAP*3)/2 = 888
(HEIGHT-MENUBAR-GAP*3)/2 = 553
