Making an "implements" association between two classes previosly resized causes clases resize to their minimum size

How to reproduce :
- create a class diagram
- create two classes and resize their boxes
- create an "implements" association between the classes

classes boxes will be resized to their minimum sizes.

A similar behaviour is observed on establishing any relationship between any two widgets. It is also observed when adding (say) and attribute to a class.
Probably the aim was to auto resize for best fit ?
Am not sure if this is a bug or an intended feature ? Comments welcome.

> Probably the aim was to auto resize for best fit ?

The problem was that Umbrello always forced minimum sizes and did not
allow for enlarging the class boxes.
For example, when dragging classes from the list view to the diagram
after code import, it could be annoying that the class boxes all have
different sizes. (Especially bothersome when display of attributes and
operations is turned off.)

Allowing for manual resize was just the first step - later, I wanted to
add support for automatic size adjustment strategies but I never got
around to that.

There should be something like 
1. a toggable entry in the diagram context menu (and the diagram menu) which enables/disables autoresizing of widgets.
2. an entry in the diagram context menu for one time auto resizing of all widgets, when the toggable autoresize option mentioned in topic 1. is disabled
3.an entry in the widgets context menu for one time auto resizing when the toggable autoresize option mentioned in topic 1. is disabled
4. a short cut for fast performing topic 2. and 3. 

Implementation notes: 
1 change UMLWidget::updateComponentSize() and the related function in derived classes according to the selected mode. 
2. add entries to the diagram menu, widget and diagram context menu
3. add event handlers for topic 2
