[Alert Dialog] Padding added on bottom when the positive button's text is a little long

Description: When creating a MaterialAlertDialog with the positive button’s text a little long, padding gets added to the bottom of the dialog making it look out of place.

Expected behavior: There should be no padding added.

Source code:

MaterialAlertDialogBuilder(requireContext()).apply {
                    setTitle("Dialog title")
                    setMessage("Dialog body")
                    setPositiveButton("Agree and continue") { _, _ ->
                        
                    }
                    setNeutralButton("No") { _, _ ->
                        
                    }
                    show()                    
                }

The issue can be replicated using an emulator with these specs: https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_6-9109.php

It doesn’t happen with the appcompat AlertDialog.Builder.

Confirm this as a bug in appcompat lib. It’s been fixed in appcompat 1.4 and later. MDC 1.7.0-alpha02 has upgraded appcompat to 1.4. If you are using earlier versions, add/update appcompat to 1.4 in your build.gradle should fix it.
