Description
## What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?
We used to have generic `Size` and `Rect` types, but they were specialized (for good reasons IMO).
But it's left some ergonomic friction, especially with measures which take separate width and height `Option` and `AvailableSpace` values which be much cleaner with a generic size type that has `map` and `zip` methods like Taffy's `Size` type .
Also, it would be nice to have some sort of `GenericSize` and `GenericSize` for dealing with window resolutions and scalings.
## What solution would you like?
`Size` could be renamed to `UiSize` and then name the new generic type `Size`. `UiSize` is a bit ugly though.
Otherwise, none of the alternative names I came up with like `Dimensions`, `Extent`, `Measurements`, etc seem super intuitive.
Maybe just `Size2` would be okay?
