Using a Bitcoin-Qt v0.16.0 (downloaded from bitcoin page) in an macOS High Sierra 10.13.4

When I start after a fresh install Bitcoin-Qt as a mainnet node and wallet, the wallet prompt that about 203gb is going to be used in my disk
image

When I start the node and wallet as testnet, shows the same message about the 203gb disk usage
image

It seems that the second time the message is wrong, due that the testnet database uses about 14gb.

Merge #13216: [Qt] implements concept for different disk sizes on intro
84d0fdc 
9d0e528 implements different disk sizes for different networks on intro (marcoagner)

Pull request description:

  Fixes #13213.
  Mostly, I layed out the concept to open the PR for refinement and getting feedback if the approach is okay. Changes are expected.

  Two points:
  - The values for both new consts `TESTNET_BLOCK_CHAIN_SIZE` and `TESTNET_CHAIN_STATE_SIZE` is certainly not optimal; I just checked the size of my testnet3 related dirs and set them to little bit higher values. Which values should be used?
  - Should we do something like this to regtest? Or these "niceties" do not matter when on regtest?

  Thanks!
