Directory can be truncated in CLI inspector #2088

If the terminal is too narrow, and the length of the directory path is too long, then it is truncated

We use a Ratatui table to display this information. Each cell in the table has a height of 1 by default, and it does not seem possible to make the height dynamic. We'll probably need to figure out a different way of rendering this information

This issue has been mentioned on Atuin Community. There might be relevant details there:

Semi-related, but the inspector generally doesn't look good when the terminal is relatively narrow. This is default 80x25 window in iTerm, as you can see a lot more stuff are truncated (even if there's space remaining in the box, at least that's what it looks like to me):

The truncated header (with the shortcuts hint and history count) is prominent in the (main) Search window as well.
