The code did not propagate the terminal width to subprocesses via
COLUMNS environment variable, which it now does. This caused
trouble to "git column" helper subprocess when "git tag --column=row"
tried to list the existing tags on a display with non-default width.

* nd/term-columns:
column: fix off-by-one default width
pager: set COLUMNS to term_columns()
