[Feature] Scale images in a sliding overlays if the images do not have the same dimensions #42

Closed larsmaxfield closed 3 months ago

Just as relative synchronized zooming allows side-by-side images of different dimensions to be viewed at the same size (#32), sliding overlays should have an option to relatively scale their individual images.

Non-main images in sliding overlays are now scaled by the fit-in-a-box so that they appear the same size as the main image. This is complementary to the feature of relative side-by-side synchronized zooming #32.

This is the new default behavior. I did not add an interface setting for users to turn it off because I don't currently know of a use case where turning it off would be useful. (But if you do see a use, feel free to make a new feature request!)
