The confusing arrangement of Liquify mode buttons and options

Transform Tool has a Liquify mode. In this mode we can choose the following
modes:

- Move
- Scale
- Rotate
- Offset
- Undo

The problem is, those buttons are arranged vertically. On their right side, are
the labels of the options:

- Mode
- Size
- Amount
- Flow
- Spacing

The problem is, they are roughly aligned with each other, making the Mode
buttons look as if they were the icons of the options.

Every time when I was translating Transform Tool's documentation page, it took
me a moment to realize what is going on. I'm sure many artists never knew these
are clickable buttons and they never knew about any Liquify modes except Move.

I recommend we:

1) Move these 5 buttons up and arrange them horizontally. 
2) Show a text label on the right of the buttons to indicate the active mode.

It makes sense this way because the options change according to which mode you
choose. They do not exist in parallel.
