Localized status messages too big for window

[humdinger]

This is hrev40513.

The area for status messages beside the logo of the Installer window can be too small for localized messages. See:

Can the LayoutKit check for the longest localized string and create a wide enough Installer window from the start?

Can the LayoutKit check for the longest localized string and create a wide enough Installer window from the start?

What's missing is !BTextView::HasHeightForWidth() and !BTextView::GetHeightForWidth() when not editable, not in a scrollview and resizable. I tried to implement it, but didn't find the time to do it right.

The LayoutKit will then automatically adjust to fit both logo and the whole status text. Dynamically. But it will also do this when the new status text is smaller enough to reduce the height, which is not the best visual effect...

This might have been fixed in hrev42022 (see #5882).
