settables: calculate the maximum width of the "Value" column
When printing the table of settables, the "Value" column is limited to 30 characters, and the "Description" column to 60.
Calculate the maximum value of the "Value" column and use that value as the width, using the length of the title "Value" as a lower bound.
For the "Description" column, keep the current behaviour, though it really doesn't require a limit at the moment, being the rightmost column.
From chatting with @kmvanbrunt , the issue described here is not limited to the settable table. We do it in the help table as well.
I think he has a thought on how to address this. I'll let him comment later.
We will tackle this feature in in a 3.0 release, but doing so beforehand would be challenging. We need to replace some of our infrastructure first and doing so will ultimately involve some breaking changes.
