I rather fix it completely first.

This is a slightly ugly fix, but better than leavign it as it is.
Normally you don't want to specify the size of a dialog, as the 
neccesary size varies between translations, font size, etc.
However, we have done that in the city dialog as we need to know the 
width to determine the number of units to show.

The ideal thing would be to put in all the other stuff and then find 
out the with, and from that determine the number of units to show in a 
row. But there doesn't seem to be a way to do that.

So with this patch we just decide on a min width (the same as the 
default one), and fill in that many units. This means the dialog is 
always at least that wide. If the dialog is wider we don't use that 
extra space to display units.
I think this is better than mangling the text.
