Describe the bug

The ask_user tool is cropping long question texts which makes it unusable for more difficult questions which require more context. Example:

Image

Expected: The ask_user tool should always show the full question text, even if it doesn't fit into one line of the current terminal width.

Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.6.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Prompt to use the ask_user tool, e. g. "Use the ask_user tool directly to ask me a tricky question from history and offer three answer choices. The question should read like a little engaging story. Do not recommend any of the choices."
  2. Check the header of the ask_user dialog at different terminal widths.

Expected behavior
