fix(ui): make window resize commands manage cmdheight

Previously, the window resize commands did not resize the value of `cmdheight` when they caused a change in the topframe height, leaving a gap between the end of topframe and the start of the command line, this commit fixes that by making window resize commands automatically change the value of cmdheight if the resize affects the height of topframe.
