Multi-Column Widget Support in Widget Stack

Allow (at least) two small widgets side-by-side in widget stacks instead of one widget per face.

Small widgets leave unused horizontal space in widget stacks, forcing users to create multiple stacks or use oversized widgets.

The solution could be to automatically arrange small widgets in two columns when space permits.

It works automatically based on widget size with no configuration needed. It also maximizes screen efficiency for users wanting compact layouts while maintaining Niagara's clean aesthetic.

    Having two widgets on separate rows would be nice too. I'd use that more than the widget stack. I often have two full width widgets I'd like to see at once.

    This is possibly the only thing I don't like about Niagara, that I can only have one widget taking up the full width of the screen. My most used widget shows two or three lines of data on the left hand side of the widget, meaning that over half the widget area is empty wasted space. I would like to have the option for this widget to take up the left hand side and add a second widget on the right hand side.
