In bug#45688 I proposed on displaying the Help buffer to call a hook
like temp-buffer-window-setup-hook or temp-buffer-window-show-hook
with the default value shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer or
fit-window-to-buffer.  Then users can customize it and remove
resizing that will make it more useful for anyone who needs
to reuse the Help window to visit source code.
