Example of popup

DESCRIPTION
The popup window when setting button mappings on a Drawing Tablet is "low quality" in its styling, with an unnecessary scroll bar, no padding and lacks the general polish of the rest of the UI

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a drawing tablet
2. Navigate to the "Pen" or "Pad" settings
3. Click to change mapping of one of the buttons

OBSERVED RESULT
A popup with poor design

EXPECTED RESULT
A more fitting design

Yeah it's not supposed to look like this, it regressed somewhat due to other changes in our UI stack.

kcms/tablet: Fix ActionDialog padding & sizing

This has regressed in some way somewhere, so I fixed this dialog by
fixing how the padding is set and not setting the maximum height.
FIXED-IN: 6.8.0
