Default &JOBS should be 78 characters or width()-compliant #99

In the continuing compatibility saga.... client compatibility!

Some clients default to a width() of 78.  The default &JOBS of BTDAS
consumes 5+30+8+16+8 = 67, plus 2 (*=new) plus 5 (job #) and 5 spaces, =
79, resulting in double spacing the jobs list unless the user configures
width themselves.

In most (all?) of the other displays I've picked one element to be flexible
to respect this reduced width().  Should do that with JOBSWIDTH_T as well.

One (easy) option: just make it u(FN_FLEXWIDTH,30).  That would fix it for 
default
settings.

Another (harder but cooler) option:  Add up all the other columns and have it 
fill
out whatever's left.  Makes JOBSWIDTH_T setting mostly unnecessary, as it will 
expand
or contract depending on what other things are set.

r295 and r296 implement the harder but cooler option. :)
