widgets of the search and replace entry widgets, and allow their labels to ellipsize upon resizing. This allows the entry widgets to have a smaller minimum size, which was having an impact on window tiling for certain locales and display resolutions (muffin and other wm's won't allow tiling of a window if the resulting window size is less than the minimum size hints reported by gtk and other toolkits.) Ellipsizing the labels has the same benefit of enabling xed to be resized smaller to tile on smaller displays. This ellipsizing only occurs once the entries hit their minimum size. Fixes #73
