crecord: fallback to text mode if diffs are too big for curses mode

crecord uses curses.newpad to create a region that we can then scroll around in
by moving the main 'screen' as a veiwport into the (probably larger than the
actual screen) pad.  Internally, at least in ncurses, pads are implemented using
windows, which have their dimensions limited to a certain size.  Depending on
compilation options for ncurses, this size might be pretty small: (signed)
short, or it might be larger ((signed) int).

crecord wants to have enough room to have all of the contents of the main area
of the chunkselector in the pad; this means that the full size with everything
expanded must be less than these (undocumented, afaict) limits.

It's not easy to write tests for this because the limits are platform- and
installation- dependent and undocumented / unqueryable, as far as I can tell.
