Bug Description

from usability tests:
Buttons (eg. mute icon, hang up button) are a bit small therefore demanded high gesture precision. Guidance from design is Make invisible touch targets larger

---------------UX comment-------------

Please increase the touch target area and follow the latest Visual design spec: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1XMHRg7T3KxMizExeRTmXJGar0WOUyBQ4A8lEMnQvcqA/edit#slide=id.ga167dd8c0_0_8

The SDK AbstractButton component will have a "sensingArea" that will default to a minimum of 4x4GU, so that the minimum touch area problem will be fixed in the whole platform at once.

It will be still possible to tweak it for special cases, of course.
