Description

Trying to set the width of a numeric stepper, WinForms ignores the Width value and does its own thing with the dimensions. The workaround on that specific platform is to set Size.

WPF seems fine with Width.

Eto 2.4.1, Win 10 RedStone 4 17115, VS 2017.

Research direction
Find the WinForms handler for NumericStepper in Eto (likely in the Eto.WinForms project). Review how Width is currently set and replace it with Size, ensuring the height remains unchanged. Check if other controls have similar platform specific sizing overrides and follow the same pattern. Test on Windows to confirm the fix works.
