[pacman-dev] [PATCH] Hide empty columns in table package list display

On -R operations, the "New Version" column is always empty, taking up
space and not really showing the user anything valuable. The same is
true on -S or -U operations for the "Old Version" column when packages
are only being installed and not upgraded.
Remove this column so we get a few screen columns back, especially now
that we show repo/packagename style output. This also makes some
adjustment to the padding logic. We no longer include padding in column
widths but it is included in the total table width. We also ensure the
last displayed column is always right aligned, even if this is not the
actual rightmost column.
Example output, before:
$ sudo pacman -R eclipse
checking dependencies...
Targets (1):
Name Old Version New Version Net Change
eclipse 3.7-1 -194.02 MiB
Total Removed Size: 194.02 MiB
And after:
$ sudo pacman -R eclipse
checking dependencies...
Targets (1):
Name Old Version Net Change
eclipse 3.7-1 -194.02 MiB
Total Removed Size: 194.02 MiB

Let's try this again, with the finished version.
