Window: Shrink close button hit-testing region when it covers an abnormally high portion of the window visible area (e.g. when window is collapsed and moved in a corner)to facilitate moving the window away. (#3825)

@@ -45,6 +45,8 @@ Other Changes:
 
 - DragScalar: Fixed crash when using DragScalar() directly (not via common wrapper like DragFloat() etc.)
   with ImGuiSliderFlags_AlwaysClamp + only one of either p_min or p_max set. (#3824) [@harry75369]
+- Window: Shrink close button hit-testing region when it covers an abnormally high portion of the window visible
+  area (e.g. when window is collapsed + moved in a corner) to facilitate moving the window away. (#3825)
 - ImDrawList: AddCircle, AddCircleFilled(): Tweaked default segment count calculation to honor MaxError
   with more accuracy. Made default segment count always even for better looking result. (#3808) [@thedmd]
 - ImDrawList: AddCircle, AddCircleFilled(): New default for style.
