Can confirm, it's too tall to fit on short screens, and when using a top panel, this causes it to open in a weird place. We'll need to find a way to make it shorter to it fits on more people's screens.

MoreSettingsMenu: remove unnecessary width and height overrides

The layout's implicit width and height are fine here; no need to
override them. Doing so was making the window so tall that it overflowed
off the top of the desktop when using a 1366x768 screen resolution.
Simply removing the height overrides is enough to fix that for the
default bottom panel height, even when also using a second top panel.
