Review request for Kopete.


Summary
-------

This is a patch that resizes the main window automatically, so that it nicely 
fits the size of the contact list tree. This is set up as an off-by-default 
option. It will never get taller than the size of the user's desktop, and it 
will never get shorter than 400 pixels.

1000 milliseconds after a contact enters/leaves the visible contact list, the 
window resizes. We wait 1000 milliseconds in case a significant number of 
contacts are appearing/disappearing at once and we only want to resize once. 
Also, it will not resize if the user's cursor is inside the main window, as 
this would likely cause undue frustration.

Advantages: - Always a nicely presented main window.
            - Keep up with feature sets in competitors (some of them already 
have this).

Disadvantages: - If window is visible to user, it is distracting to see it 
resizing spontaneously.

Of course, this is all off by default, and even if the setting is enabled, it 
only takes effect when the main window is maximized.

User has two config options:
1) Enable/disable automatic resizing
2) Anchor resizing at top or bottom of window


This addresses bug 154955.
