Description
When using a horizontal legend with labels of significantly different widths, it would be nice to have an option to have tight spacing across the legend. Right now the labels are padded so that all labels are the same width (to match the longest label).
I know the legend is doing a lot of hard work to space and align items automatically, but horizontal legends look a bit odd if the labels are different widths.
Here is an example of the current behaviour, a screen capture of the result, followed by a mock up of the proposed behaviour.
ScottPlot.Plot myPlot = new();
var sp1 = myPlot.Add.Signal(Generate.RandomSample(50, -1, 1));
sp1.LineWidth = 2;
sp1.LegendText = "Random";
var sp2 = myPlot.Add.Signal(Generate.Sin());
sp2.LegendText = "One Cycle of A Sine Wave";
sp2.LineWidth = 4;
var sp3 = myPlot.Add.Signal(Generate.Consecutive(count: 50, delta: 0.03, first: -1));
sp3.LegendText = "Ramp";
sp3.LineWidth = 2;
sp3.LinePattern = LinePattern.Dotted;
myPlot.Legend.Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal;
myPlot.Legend.Alignment = Alignment.UpperLeft;
