Nameplates of hunter trap snakes should be shrunk #11

On classic wotlk we do it like this:

https://github.com/Evolvee/EvolvePWPUI-ClassicWOTLK/blob/main/Interface/AddOns/TextureScript/TextureScript.lua#L1121 https://github.com/Evolvee/EvolvePWPUI-ClassicWOTLK/blob/main/Interface/AddOns/TextureScript/TextureScript.lua#L1171 https://github.com/Evolvee/EvolvePWPUI-ClassicWOTLK/blob/main/Interface/AddOns/TextureScript/TextureScript.lua#L1382

It basically shrinks the nameplates of snakes to not be so annoying and cover the entire screen, but at the same time, be visible and alert the player that he cant use Psychic Scream (or any other aoe that has limited amount of affected targets).

On 3.3.5, Xyz wasnt able to achieve this :( So we are currently hiding all the nameplates by default and just displaying the snake names. I still think that shrinking is nicer but if its rly not possible, its fine as it is right now.

Maybe this could be useful? https://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info14964-_VirtualPlates.html There is also a nameplate addon that increases/decreases the nameplates based on distance in my old 3.3.5 folder (i can look it up on request)
