Sounds too complicated IMO.  Let's stick to your earlier proposal as

          (ignore-errors
            (if (eq height 'fit-window-to-buffer)
                (fit-window-to-buffer
                 window nil (cdr (assq 'window-min-height alist)))
              (funcall height window)))

say something like "As a special case, if `window-height' specifies
`fit-window-to-buffer' and ALIST contains a `window-min-height' entry,
pass the value of that entry as MIN-HEIGHT argument to
`fit-window-to-buffer'." and do a similar thing for `window-min-width'.

And if we really want to, we can always add a MIN-HEIGHT argument to
'shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer' and handle it the same way.
