Subject: [PATCH] Limit max widths of various elements

Bubbles are limited to 30em to facilitate comfortable reading length.
The width of the message list is limited to aid visual threading
of the conversation. The overall layout is restricted to 1300px and
centered if the window is much wider.

The header avatar resizes responsively to save room when the window
gets narrow
