Subject: [PATCH] fix: Find on page leaves the query room beside the match
 count

The query field filled what the count and buttons left of the 240-pt box,
which was about two letters. Finding now widens the box by 120 into the tab
row's spare room, the field keeps at least 72, and the count shortens before
the field gives up more.
