Add option to set tab sizes for scrollable tab bar

[ajgraves]

When you have the option "Enable Horizontal Scrolling" set on Settings > Tabs under the Tab Display section, the tabs on the tab bar don't shrink at all. I would love Vivaldi to add an option that allows you to set the tabs to shrink some as they need to, depending on how many tabs you have open.

This setting is available in the built-in Chromium flag "Tab Scrolling" with options such as "Enabled - tabs shrink to medium width" etc. However, Vivaldi does not honor these settings (I assume it's because Vivaldi uses a custom interface rather than the Chromium based interface, therefore it's on Vivaldi to add this option to their interface).

@ajgraves Hi, Thanks for your feature request.

This looks like a duplicate of https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/27145/option-to-modify-the-tab-width Please vote & discuss at that thread, thank you.

You can use the forum search first to see if you can find similar requests. If that doesn't work, I've catalogued all the requests here.

You're correct that those chrome flags won't work with vivaldi. Currently this feature isn't implemented.

@LonM thanks for that, I did attempt to search but I didn't find that thread, probably because I was using keywords in my search that weren't discussed there? Regardless, sorry for the extra noise. I read through that thread and it did briefly discuss tab width for scrolling tabs, but seemed mostly to cover tab width in general. I will post there as well and follow that thread, hopefully it leads to an implementation of what I requested
