            Bug ID: 133160
           Summary: Autofilter popup should be resizeable
           Product: LibreOffice

Example file from Calc

This is followup to bug #49813
There the width of the autofilter popup window was set to be at least the width
of the column, if its’s more wide than a sensible default.
This still makes the filterable text unreadable if it’s in a column that is
narrower than the text. 
User reaction is that the popup should be resizeable manually, since the new
behavior is not intuitive / discoverable.

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open attached document, open the autofilter popup and try to read the
end of the long text in the popups checklist

Actual results:
End of the text is not readable unless you make the column A wider.

Expected results:
Dropdown is resizeable by dragging its bottom right corner, as that would be
something visually discoverable / expected by Excel users.
Also: Excel has a horizontal scrollbar for the autofilter popup, which allows
scrolling the filter options if they have very long texts – that could be nice
to have too.
