Add "expand" button to units panel in new City Dialog #2295

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When you have a large number of units in a city, it can be difficult to see them and even harder to find and pick the one you want to engage the enemy with.

Describe the solution you'd like Reduce the units panel to only show a single row of units (not the 1.5 we have now) and then when there is more than one row enable an "up arrow" expand button that would enlarge the panel to something like 4 or 5 rows max to make it easier to see/work with the units.

Describe alternatives you've considered None other than the status quo. We do have grand plans to make more changes to the city dialog, but that is probably a long way off.
