Dashboard alignment for default configurations

[gAlleb]

Hi, so after investigating, i've found that current dashboard alignment has a hardcoded horizontal offset of -6, which causes the content to be slightly misaligned to the left on default or fresh NvChad installations.

After testing, I found that changing this offset from -6 to -2 results in much more accurate centering. This value seems to better reflect the default width of UI elements.

I made a fresh install. Defaults are here .local/share/nvim/lazy/ui/lua/nvchad/nvdash/init.lua:

    local col = math.floor((winw / 2) - math.floor(strw(v) / 2)) - 6
    col = math.floor((winw / 2) - math.floor(w / 2)) - 6
    col = math.floor((winw / 2) - math.floor(w / 2)) -  6

Changed -6 to -2 in .local/share/nvim/lazy/ui/lua/nvchad/nvdash/init.lua:

    local col = math.floor((winw / 2) - math.floor(strw(v) / 2)) - 2
    col = math.floor((winw / 2) - math.floor(w / 2)) - 2
    col = math.floor((winw / 2) - math.floor(w / 2)) -  2

While I understand that there can be a specific reasoning: taking into account a number column and a sign column. But default installation looks much better with the defaults changed to -2.

What do you think? Can we change it to -2 by default? Or maybe make this offset a configurable option?

Thanks.

P.S. I didn't make a PR because I'm not sure whether there might be any other reasoning behind this -6 value apart from what i've written above.

hmm i dont remember why i added -6 , does removing it fully fix the bug?

Yeah, Not removing, but changing it to -2. All works fine, I didn't notice any regressions.

If we remove it completely - dashboard will be slightly right-aligned.
