Improve 'display-buffer' 'temp-buffer-resize-mode' cohabitation (Bug#51062)
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Temporary Displays): Explain how to override the effect of 'temp-buffer-resize-mode' with a suitable 'display-buffer' action alist entry. * doc/lispref/windows.texi (Buffer Display Action Alists): Mention that an 'inhibit-switch-frame' entry might not work with every WM. Describe the 'window-size' entry. Describe how automatic window resizing can be overridden. * lisp/help.el (resize-temp-buffer-window-inhibit): New variable. (resize-temp-buffer-window): Handle case where user overrides automatic resizing. * lisp/window.el (temp-buffer-window-show): Bind 'resize-temp-buffer-window-inhibit' to nil around 'display-buffer'. Do not raise frame automatically to avoid defeating 'inhibit-switch-frame'. (window--display-buffer): Set 'resize-temp-buffer-window-inhibit' to t when the action alist contains a 'window-height', 'window-width' or 'window-size' entry. Use 'modify-frame-parameters' instead of 'set-frame-height' and 'set-frame-width' to avoid that the latter step on each others toes. (display-buffer): Fix 'inhibit-switch-frame' part in and add 'window-size' part to doc-string.
