Description

### Describe the bug

Hi,
In moving from Toolkit 7 to 8 I encountered the issue that the size of the Flyout on the first page is too tall. Likely because the second palette page is longer than in the 7.1 design?

I made this screen recording to show the issue:
https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/Windows/assets/471338/743fa89b-aaa3-484d-8db6-64e6eb3825a7

### Steps to reproduce

Starting from an empty WinUI3 template, I added a ColorPickerButton and the CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Controls.ColorPicker nuget package.

MainWindow.xaml
```xaml
xmlns:controls="using:CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Controls"
[...]

```

App6.csproj
```xml
net8.0-windows10.0.22621.0
10.0.17763.0
[...]




```

### Expected behavior

The old design had two pages that where the same height.

I think the spacing of the initial page with the color spectrum can be improved, or the palette page can be condensed a bit so that both pages are of similar height.

### Screenshots

See screen recording above.

### Additional context

I did not follow the redesign of this component closely, maybe this was an intentional design change? I can see multiple ways to fix this issue.
