change two labels

These terms appear at the "_Size" tab of GIMPressionist plugin
for the brush size alternation feature.

I suggest "Size variants:" for the label "Sizes:"  that is bundled 
with the slider which controls the number of variants in brush size,
and "Resize factor:" for the label "Size:" that leads a set of radio
buttons for choosing a factor which controls brush size.

The attached patch acts these changes.

In my notice, 'zh_TW', 'ca@catalan', and 'ja' translators provide
verbose phrases for these terms not only transforming singular
and plural words into their locales.  For other languages/locales,
I don't know plural form system is meaningful for recognizing
these functionality, with my poor knowleadge about foreign
languges.  I'm afraid these changes would bother almost translators.

"Resize factor" does sound rather confusing. It could mean that a factor is resized or it could mean a factor for resizing. The current label "Size:" is probably the better choice here.

    Bug 618143 - Clarify labels in 'Size' tab in GIMPressionist
    
    The "Size" and "Sizes" labels in the GIMPressionist plugin can be more
    descriptive, change them to "Size variants" and "Size depends on"
    respectively.
