Don't set manwidth wider than the window (#34078)
fix: set manwidth to not exceed the window width
If we set the MANWIDTH variable to a value wider than the window, the
contents wrap and formatting breaks. A more sensible way to handle this
is to interpret MANWIDTH as a maximum width, but to set the width to the
window size if smaller.
