Description
### Description of the new feature / enhancement
I would like to see a 50/50 split in the suggested Fancy Zone layout
### Scenario when this would be used?
For smaller displays I am using a 50/50 layout as information is presented well there. I love the pressing SHIFT feature and then snapping it in the half half section. This is way more convenient than using the CTRL + Arrow keys.

Start by locating the Fancy Zones code that defines suggested layouts and review how existing split layouts are represented. Add the requested 50/50 layout to that suggestion set, then verify that it appears correctly for smaller displays and does not disrupt the existing SHIFT snapping workflow.
