Add a config option to change the display of Inherent Powers to vertically sorted #54

Here is a build made new in the current Mids Reborn v3. https://www.dropbox.com/s/kj8txx3sjz9fr5o/Jacke%20Dark%20-%201%20-%20Blaster%20AR-Dev-Mun%20Rune%20Recall.20210106.mxd?dl=0

The font settings in Configuration are the install defaults.

Here is how that build displays in Mids Reborn v3 in 4-column mode with the main window resized to remove text cutoff. https://www.dropbox.com/s/187rei0i9qcoe9w/20210106j.Mids_Reborn.3.0.1.9.Jacke_Dark.1.20210106.v3.24.png?dl=0

As a contrast, here's the same file loaded into Mids Reborn v2 with the 2020 Dec 24 Unpolished database, in its 4-column form. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ktu3m6g131xv51k/20210106j.Mids_Reborn.3.0.1.9.Jacke_Dark.1.20210106.v2.22.png?dl=0

v3 displayed the Inherent Powers, including Prestige Powers and Incarnate Powers, sorted horizontally. Example, to the right of Inherent Fitness power Swift is Hurdle, then Health, then Stamina.

By contrast, v2 shows those same powers sorted vertically, with the 4-column display putting the Incarnate Powers in the 4th column. Example, below Inherent Fitness power Swift is Hurdle, then Health, then Stamina.

I understand the reasonings for both horizontal and vertical sort orders. I've also found the vertical sort of v2 to be easier to read at most times.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to see a toggle in the configuration to change the sort of the Inherent Powers area between horizontal and vertical to allow the vertical display of the Inherent Powers.

This is a possibility, I will look into it.
