Allow for Configuring Horizontal Margins for Lyrics in the Landscape Now Playing Screen

Feature description:

Just like any other existing elements in the screen, allow configuring the horizontal margin (or others like top/bottom as well if needed) for lyrics in the Now Playing Screen as well.

Problem solved:

Almost all existing elements (e.g, top bar, controls, cover, bottom bar, etc) in the Now Playing Screen has a configurable margins. But, lyrics in particular does not. It’s fixed to 0 with no options other than being able to choose the position.

And since there’s no way to adjust the margin on per-block (Left, Right) basis either and only thru the elements, you cannot configure its margin to align with other margin-configured elements in any way. This isn’t really a problem if the “Center text” in the lyrics settings is set to true, but if it’s false you’ll notice it.

Brought benefits:

More customization options, of course!

I also believe 13.5.0 had a default fixed margin around 15~20 for lyric lines? Not too sure but this misalignment issue now appeared after updating to 13.6.0 and I had the control horizontal margins set to 15 or 20 so.

Please provide screenshot of the issue and your settings.

In now playing the lyrics use the album margins as it replaces it.

Ah well, sorry about that.

My WIP theme uses lyrics element and the player controls in the right block with the cover art placed in the left block instead of the cover/lyrics toggle.

In this screenshot the player controls have 20 horizontal margins and as you can see it’s misaligned by that amount.

If I removed the margin from the controls it’d gonna reach the screen edge which I definitely don’t want so it’s not like I can set the margin to 0 either.
