message: a long reply quote stays inside its column (own and received); demo gets a long quote to reply to

The row around a bubble sized to its content in a right-aligned column, and the quote's nowrap text made
that content 782px, so on a phone the column ran off the left edge. The row, column and bubble now carry
minWidth 0 / maxWidth 100%, and ReplyContent minWidth 0 so the quote truncates. Starfire 390x844:
own quote 782px at left -425 -> 332px at left 25; desktop inside the bubble. No test yet.
