there is some inconsistency between fitting modes in XnView and XnShell

Suggestion

• XnShell
  - use same modes as in XnView

• rename
  • Centered → No fit
    the biggest difference between modes lies in the fitting area, not in the origin
    so it is better to specify the fitting aspect of a given mode
  • Tile from center → Tile
    center is default origin point, it does not need special highlighting
  • Tile → Tile (top-left)
    indicate origin point when it differs from default
