Tool-call cards can now show taller descriptions when a new 'roomyDescription' flag is set

What

The cards Claude Code shows for permission requests and tool calls now compute their maximum description height using a new roomyDescription flag. When this flag is true and the terminal window is wide enough, the card is allowed to grow taller (up to a cap) instead of being limited to the previous fixed minimum height.

Why

This lets longer tool-call descriptions display more fully on wide terminals instead of being cut off at a fixed short height.
