What and why

From 100 columns up, /keys (Hotbar setup) puts the action list and the selected action's details side by side. The list column is then 40 to 48 wide, and the marker, recommended tag, name and status take 39 of it, so a row's description never gets more than nine columns. At 100×32, before:

 │app actions                              Command palette                                        │
 │▸  rec Command palette        ready    … palette.open                                           │
 │   rec Compact session        ready    …                                                        │
 │   rec Cycle reasoning        ready    … Category: app                                          │
 │   rec Operate mode           ready    … Status: ready                                          │

After:

 │app actions                              Command palette                                        │
 │▸  rec Command palette        ready      palette.open                                           │
 │   rec Compact session        ready                                                             │
 │   rec Cycle reasoning        ready      Category: app                                          │
 │   rec Operate mode           ready      Status: ready                                          │

At 120×32 and 140×40 the rows read "Open…", "Shrink…", "Step…", "Do…". The full description is already in the detail pane ("Open the command palette." further down on the right).

So when the layout is split, the rows leave the description out and the detail pane shows it. render() already has layout.stacked, so it's passed down to action_row_line. The stacked layout below 100 columns and the 80-column render_lines export keep their descriptions, and a disabled row's reason still follows its status.

Issue

No-Issue: Hotbar setup rows show a lone "…" or one word of description beside the detail pane, no issue filed for it

How I tested it

• Ran a debug build in a pseudo-terminal with an empty HOME and opened /keys at 60×16, 80×24, 97×30, 98×30, 100×32, 120×32 and 140×40, with this change and without it. The four stacked sizes (up to 98×30) are byte-identical before and after. At 100, 120 and 140 the rows end after the status column, and so does the slash tab at 100.
• The one existing action_row_line test call passes true for the new argument, and its word-boundary truncation assertions still hold.
• cargo fmt --all -- --check, cargo clippy -p codewhale-tui --all-targets --all-features with CI's flags, and cargo check -p codewhale-tui --all-targets: clean. Clippy also on 1.99, plus cargo +1.89.0 check -p codewhale-tui.
• cargo nextest run -p codewhale-tui --lib: 15347 passed, none failed, including the hotbar setup tests.

Checklist

• One focused change, on 273ac2d; it merges cleanly into current main
• cargo fmt --all passes, and tests cover new or changed behavior
• If this adds or changes a user-facing feature, I updated its docs and its row in docs/features.toml (cargo test -p codewhale-tui --test feature_registry checks it) — n/a

Thanks @Lstarsky0. Good catch that the side-by-side setup layout left each row with a lone "…" or one word of description while the detail pane already shows it in full, and for checking that the stacked sizes and the 80-column export render byte-identical. Merged in da467bb for 0.10.2, which hasn't shipped yet.
