[Ocean Modifier] Viewport Resolution Setting

As the ocean modifier is quite performance-intensive a viewport-resolution-setting comparable to the one implemented in the Subdiv-Modifier would be a huge benefit.

Sadly it seems that this isn't done with just adding another input value as a modification of the resolution seems to influence the seed as well; but I'm not a coder so I can't estimate the total effort to implement this.

The resolution vs seed is resolved with 2.83 changes to the ocean modifier. This request looks to be identical to blender.community/c/rightclickselect/JKbbbc/ and I'm considering taking a look to see what can be done.

Quick workaround: 2 modifiers with different resolutions, 1 active only for viewport, 1 only for render (eye, camera icons). Doesn't solve the different seed issue though
