RFE: side view zoom

[Tristan Croll]

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Linux-3.10.0-1127.19.1.el7.x86_64-x86_64-with-glibc2.14
ChimeraX Version: 1.2.3 (2021-05-13 06:57:20 UTC)
Description
Particularly when working with a large model in the orthographic camera, the representation in the side view becomes *really* tiny making it impossible to precisely adjust clipping planes that way. I think it would be good to have a zoom option for the side view panel.
