Minimum size of the settings app

SUMMARY
I can't resize the settings smaller than a relatively big size(screenshot1). Also, when I drag the windows to the side of the screen, it strangely resizes (screenshot2).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open settings app on plasma(wayland)
2. Try to resize the apps to make it smaller
3. Try to drag the apps to the corner.

OBSERVED RESULT
Settings app can't be smaller. Dragging the settings app to the corner doesn't resize the app to the corner.

EXPECTED RESULT
Settings app can have any size. Dragging the settings app to the corner will resize the app to the size of the corner.

This is intentional, because if you make the window any smaller, then the individual pages' content can (and often does) get cut off.

I know it's not the most elegant way to handle the situation (sorry!), but it was the best we could do for the moment given the state of the systemsettings codebase, which is quite old and hard to work with at this point.

But, if it's intentional why in plasma x11, it can be smaller.
