minirst: improve layout of field lists

Before, we used the padding following the key to compute where to wrap
the text. Long keys would thus give a big indentation. It also
required careful alignment of the source text, making it cumbersome to
items to the list.

We now compute the maximum key length and use that for all items in
the list. We also put a cap on the indentation: keys longer than 10
characters are put on their own line. This is similar to how rst2html
handles large keys: it uses 14 as the cutoff point, but I felt that 10
was better for monospaced text in the console.

"""simplified reStructuredText parser.

This parser knows just enough about reStructuredText to parse the
Mercurial docstrings.

It cheats in a major way: nested blocks are not really nested. They
are just indented blocks that look like they are nested. This relies
on the user to keep the right indentation for the blocks.

It only supports a small subset of reStructuredText:

- sections

- paragraphs

- literal blocks

- definition lists

- bullet lists (items must start with '-')

- enumerated lists (no autonumbering)

- field lists (colons cannot be escaped)

- option lists (supports only long options without arguments)

- inline literals (no other inline markup is not recognized)
