Closes #4297
Hey! thank you for this awesome package. Adding a small feature for modals here.

How to test

library(shiny)
library(bslib)

shinyApp(
  ui = bslib::page_fillable(
    actionButton("open", "open modal")
  ),
  server = function(input, output, session) {
    observe(
      showModal(
        modalDialog("fullscreen!", size = "full")
      )
    ) |> 
      bindEvent(input$open)
  }
)

Fullscreen modal sizes have a few flavors

Class Availability
.modal-fullscreen Always
.modal-fullscreen-sm-down 576px
.modal-fullscreen-md-down 768px
.modal-fullscreen-lg-down 992px
.modal-fullscreen-xl-down 1200px
.modal-fullscreen-xxl-down 1400px

I like that modalDialog() helps you find the appropriate value, but more and more I feel like throwing an error for invalid value unnecessarily breaks future-compatibility with changing sizes.

I think the behavior I'd prefer here in this case is:

  1. If size is a known alias value, map to a specific class, e.g. "s"modal-sm or "full"modal-fullscreen.
  2. If size doesn't already have the modal- prefix, prepend it, e.g. "sm"modal-sm or "fullscreen-lg-down"modal-fullscreen-lg-down

I'm going to bring this up internally to see what the rest of the Shiny team thinks before we move forward.

Primarily to support Bootstrap size aliases (they use sm, md, lg, etc. instead of the s, m, l used here in size). If they know about the full class and use modal-fullscreen-lg-down we wouldn't prepend modal- to the class.
