Nobody tabs every part, but tabbing by size is useful even on a plate
that has a support grid. Cutting Settings > Tabs now offers "Only tab
parts the support grid can't hold level" or "Tab parts by size"
(CuttingParameters.TabBySize), which ignores the bed and tabs each part
whose minimum-area bounding rectangle's narrow side is in the range.
The support grid choice still falls back to that range on plates with
no bed, as before.
The range fields become TabSizeMinWidth/TabSizeMaxWidth; their JSON
keys stay noBedTabMinWidth/noBedTabMaxWidth so saved settings and nests
read unchanged. TabsEnabled stays as the per-contour flag Plan Cutting,
Place Lead-in and drawing pins set on the parts they tab.
Saved user settings with "Tab every part" read as tabs by size from 0
to 9999, which tabs the same parts. Only the user's settings migrate;
a plate's recorded parameters and pins replay as planned.
Plan Cutting, Place Lead-in and the pre-post review all go through
SupportTabSettings, so they agree on which parts need a tab. A
size-tabbed part is held by any clear tab, so it is never a rapid
obstacle.

With support tabs on and no support bed, nothing was tabbed and nothing
said so. A new no-bed width range (NoBedTabMinWidth..NoBedTabMaxWidth,
the short side of the part's minimum-area bounding rectangle) now picks
the parts to tab instead. SupportTabSettings.Analyze makes the choice
for Plan Cutting, hand-placed lead-ins and the pre-post review; without
a bed any tab clear of inside corners counts. With no bed and no range,
the plan notes that nothing was tabbed. Cutting Settings > Tabs gains
the range fields, and the values persist with the cutting parameters.
