Summary: Improved zoom button behavior[Expander] Improved zoom button behavior

Expander already zooms/shrinks to best fit.

Also, if an archive only has a few files, the Expander window moves to the center of the screen when I use the zoom button. I find that behavior to be not useful, as the user then has to make extraneous mouse movements to use the app or hit the zoom button again.

Here's an example of Expander failing to zoom to a best fit: Screenshot of Expander not zooming to best fit.

I noticed that upon enabling "Show contents", Expander tries to resize itself to display the entries without a horizontal scroll bar. For some reason, the openjdk archive causes Expander to resize partially, but not wide enough. Perhaps that is where the bug lays?

Several Expander windows.
