Add a spacing property to GridView and ListView

Proposal: Add a spacing property to GridView and ListView

Add a spacing property to control the space between each item without setting margin manually.

Summary

Although setting margin does work and the default style does it, it results in extra unwanted space. This can be fixed by adding a negative margin to the ListView or GridView however I think it will be better if there was a built-in spacing property similar to StackPanel which also accounts for hidden elements.

Rationale

• More flexibility
• Remove the need for manually setting margin for each item

@anawishnoff FYI

[mrlacey]

Having separate VerticalSpacing and HorizontalSpacing properties would be particularly useful

To be consistent, maybe RowSpacing and ColumnSpacing

It's 2024 and we still have no plan for this?

[bogdan-patraucean]

We can inspire from Stackpanel Spacing feature.
