Fixes https://github.com/OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer/issues/12284

Adds a preference for filaments area height since every user has different amount of MM units and external filaments
so users can set a value that fits their setups this way

we might see 3 or 6 filaments for each unit on future. thats why i set value as int

used 10 as default value. its good for 2 multimaterial units ( 8 filaments ) and 1 external filament

min value is 8. might be good when no external filaments in use

max value is 99. UI works same as 2.3.1 version

BEFORE
Scrollable area fixed for 10 items. that causes a lot of scrolling whe user has 3 or 4 ams units

AFTER
value 10. - 2 multimaterial units ( 8 filaments ) and 1 external filament

value 18 - 4 multimaterial units ( 16 filaments ) and 1 external filament
