Make the media library modal's dimensions configurable

Problem/Motivation

It is currently not possible to change the width and height of the media library modal. The values are hard-coded (in MediaLibraryUiBuilder::getDialogOptions()) and not changeable.

In #3127867-7: MediaLibraryWidget should use the media_library.ui_builder service when fetching modal dialog options β†’ , @seanB said:

I've had more questions about changing the width and height of the modal. We have discussed things like an alter hook before but since the class is also used in a lot of javascript we should not make it easy for people to change this.

As a first step I can see making this method non-static and fetch the options via the service is a good step to help with this. Calling the static method on the class is definitely not developer friendly. I guess if we make the width and height configurable this would even help other people from not needing to override the service as well, but that can be a followup.

This is that follow-up.
