Feature Request: Remember separate board sizes for gameplay and analysis modes

Currently, Lichess remembers your chosen board size and applies it for both the normal gameplay mode and the analysis mode. The problem is that because I keep the board as large as possible during gameplay, I have to manually shrink the board to make room for the analysis graph after each game, and then manually enlarge the board again before the next game.

I would like a feature that remembers your chosen board size for gameplay and your chosen board size for analysis, separately, so that you can have two different board sizes.

Alternatively, I would also be fine with a feature that just auto-shrinks the board when displaying the analysis graph, and then re-enlarges the board before the next game, so that the board always takes up as much room as possible without needing to scroll to view the analysis graph. But it seems like allowing two different custom sizes would be more flexible.

@jth1 Can't you just scroll down to the analysis graph?

@Yamni_Ista Sure, but scrolling up and down is a lot less convenient than being able to see the graph and board simultaneously. It is nice to be able to step through moves on the board and watch the location marker move along the graph at the same time.
