Minimum-width Navigator sidebar

I believe the minimum width of the Navigator sidebar is too high, i.e. the
Navigator is always wide and can't be narrowed down to a reasonable width.

* At its minimum width, it is perhaps 10% wider than the Styles sidebar
minimum; 
* Its tree-ish content rectangle, in an empty document, uses up less than 35%
of its width
* Three of its four widget rows (other than the main content rectangle) require
no more than 70% of the current Navigator sidebar width

It's just the first row of widgets that's the culprit. And that can definitely
be made narrower! For example, the spinbox increment and decrement widges can
(one hopes!) be stacked vertically rather than horizontally, or even hidden
altogether, to save space; the collapsed category drop-down list could lose,
oh, 20% of its width in a pinch, even if the longest item would suffer when
displayed. And that's without considering hiding any widgets.

So, please make it happen.

Note: This bug may be VCL-specific.
