Add three smaller subtitle size options with exponential spacing

Added Nano, Micro, and Smallest subtitle sizes before the existing Small option.
Uses exponential spacing (40, 32, 25, 19, 14, 10, 7) for better granularity
at smaller sizes, allowing users to read subtitles more comfortably on
different screen sizes and resolutions.
