Testing #91250:

When reading the following in my settings file, I have no idea what this means:

"editor.minimap.mode": "actual",

And I have a hard time understanding what the other two "modes" "contain" and "cover" really mean.

So I tried hard to understand what is controlled by the "mode". On a mathematical level it is a "projection", but this is not something to "throw" at users.

On a simpler level it is the "size" of the minimap.

Based on this we could rename "mode" to "size" and use these values and descriptions:

• "sameSize": Minimap has the same size as the editor contents (and might scroll).
• "shrink": The minimap will shrink as necessary to never be larger than the editor (no scrolling).
• "shrinkOrExpand": The minimap will stretch or shrink as necessary to fill the height of the editor (no scrolling).
