repository summary: avoid table bleed on long commit messages

For commit messages with the first line being very long, the 'latest
changes' table on the repository overview page can 'bleed', so that the
commit number overlaps with the commit status.

Commit 15cb8156b10d732cf39b37a88c656894621c0f54 changed the initial truncate
on 50 characters to a chop at the first newline characters, causing this
issue to pop up more frequently.

Instead of using floating divs for the commit status and number of comments,
use dedicated table columns, as compact as possible.
Additionally, move these new columns to the very left of the table, instead
of cramming them in between the revision and commit message.

The comments-container class gets a new attribute 'white-space: nowrap' to
avoid the comment icon to wrap from the number of comments, when the table
does wrap on a small screen.
Note that the icon currently does not display as it should be renamed from
icon-comment-alt/colored to icon-comment. This will be fixed by Sean Farley.

Debugging Kallithea
===================

If you encountered problems with Kallithea here are some instructions how to
possibly debug them.

** First make sure you're using the latest version available.**

enable detailed debug
---------------------

Kallithea uses standard python logging modules to log it's output.
By default only loggers with INFO level are displayed. To enable full output
change `level = DEBUG` for all logging handlers in currently used .ini file.
This change will allow to see much more detailed output in the logfile or
console. This generally helps a lot to track issues.


enable interactive debug mode
-----------------------------

To enable interactive debug mode simply comment out `set debug = false` in
.ini file, this will trigger and interactive debugger each time there an
error in browser, or send a http link if error occured in the backend. This
is a great tool for fast debugging as you get a handy python console right
in the web view. ** NEVER ENABLE THIS ON PRODUCTION ** the interactive console
can be a serious security threat to you system.
