Bug#286122: grub-installer: make display ugly for high-resolution diplay as well



Package: grub-installer
Followup-For: Bug #286122

These hard returns in the displayed messages are very ugly in a
non-default resolution as well.  I did an install with 1280x1024
resolution (vga=794, 160x64 chars), and these hard returns makes the
display ugly and confusing (as the first paragraph doesn't have hard
returns and spans across the screen).

I understand that hard returns are used here because we want to achieve
the "indent" effect, but it just breaks every screen resolution other
than the default (80x24?) one.  I believe it won't play well with GTK
installer either.
