    Pattern: switch to small font when there are many row clues
    
    If you have a particularly large number of clues in a row, they can
    end up falling off the left edge of the window.  This used not to be a
    problem because the rendering code would squash them closer together
    if necessary.  But then I switched to drawing them all as a single
    string (so that two-digit row clues would get enough space with a
    large font) and that broke the old mechanism.
    
    Now we detect if there are enough clues that our conservative guess at
    the string length looks like overflowing in the big font, and switch
    to the small one if necessary.  If we had a drawing call to measure a
    string then we could be cleverer about this, but we don't.
    
    This problem can be demonstrated with "7x1:1//1//1//1/1.1.1.1" in the
    GTK port with the fonts my laptop has.
    
    I think overflow can still occur even with a small font, so once I've
    demonstrated that I'll try to fix it.

    Pattern: Reduce row clue spacing if there are lots of them
    
    Normally, we put two spaces between row clues, but if there are a lot
    then even with a smaller font size they might overflow the left edge
    of the window.  To compensate, go down to one space between clues
    instead of two if there are a lot of them.  On my laptop the GTK build
    demonstrates overflow with "13x1:1//1//1//1//1//1//1/1.1.1.1.1.1.1".
