#2615 [tk fontchooser] displays a wrong-sized dialog

The new font dialog pops with a wrong size, too narrow in width so the size column is almost no visible, and too tall, so it has extra space at the bottom. The dialog is resizable (should it be?) but the resize doesn't survive to the next invocation, and it displays incorrectly again.

    Ugh; did anyone actually look at this dialog before committing? (Fixed sizes???)

    to be honest, no I did not, I only dealt with native macosx dialog, the unix dialog had been in the patch for a long time (already for the previous fontchooser TIP) and had been discussed on tcl-core ad nauseam from what I remember...

    looks fine on windows (once I force use of the non-native version)

    Fixed now to have some sensible minimum sizes for the lists based upon measuring the current font size and scrollbar size. Added a restriction to avoid minimizing the dialog too small.
