Suggestion: A seperate bar for memory usage similar to the Bot Brain Capacity Bar #396

Since there is a limit to the memory usage of the transposition table, although there are certain functions in C# to detect memory usage, still for programmers who are not experienced in C# (like me), it is very likely to make mistake in the calculations and think that they are doing well while the calculations are wrong. This also happened to @SebLague when he was developing his own chess engine. So a seperate memory usage bar having some upper limit which is little bit more than 256 MB would make programmers like me more confident about the memory usage. Also this will answer most of the questions related to memory usage people have asked in the issues till now. It will be also nice if the memory usage calculation updates with time so that we can keep track of dynamic transposition table.
