wt-status: lift the artificual "at least 20 columns" floor
 
When we show unmerged paths, we had an artificial 20 columns floor
for the width of labels (e.g. "both deleted:") shown next to the
pathnames.  Depending on the locale, this may result in a label that
is too wide when all the label strings are way shorter than 20
columns, or no-op when a label string is longer than 20 columns.

Just drop the artificial floor.  The screen real estate is better
utilized this way when all the strings are shorter.

Adjust the tests to this change.

NAME
----
git-fmt-merge-msg - Produce a merge commit message


SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git fmt-merge-msg' [-m <message>] [--log[=<n>] | --no-log] <$GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD
'git fmt-merge-msg' [-m <message>] [--log[=<n>] | --no-log] -F <file>

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Takes the list of merged objects on stdin and produces a suitable
commit message to be used for the merge commit, usually to be
passed as the '<merge-message>' argument of 'git merge'.

This command is intended mostly for internal use by scripts
automatically invoking 'git merge'.

OPTIONS
-------

--log[=<n>]::
	In addition to branch names, populate the log message with
	one-line descriptions from the actual commits that are being
	merged.  At most <n> commits from each merge parent will be
	used (20 if <n> is omitted).  This overrides the `merge.log`
	configuration variable.

--no-log::
	Do not list one-line descriptions from the actual commits being
	merged.

--[no-]summary::
	Synonyms to --log and --no-log; these are deprecated and will be
	removed in the future.

-m <message>::
--message <message>::
	Use <message> instead of the branch names for the first line
	of the log message.  For use with `--log`.

-F <file>::
--file <file>::
	Take the list of merged objects from <file> instead of
	stdin.

CONFIGURATION
-------------

merge.branchdesc::
	In addition to branch names, populate the log message with
	the branch description text associated with them.  Defaults
	to false.

merge.log::
	In addition to branch names, populate the log message with at
	most the specified number of one-line descriptions from the
	actual commits that are being merged.  Defaults to false, and
	true is a synonym for 20.

merge.summary::
	Synonym to `merge.log`; this is deprecated and will be removed in
	the future.
