    [gdb/build] Remove dependency on _rl_term_autowrap
    
    Commit deb1ba4e38b ("[gdb/tui] Fix TUI resizing for TERM=ansi") introduced a
    dependency on readline private variable _rl_term_autowrap.
    
    There is precedent for this, but it's something we want to get rid of
    (PR build/10723).
    
    Remove the dependency on _rl_term_autowrap, and instead calculate
    readline_hidden_cols by comparing the environment variable COLS with cols as
    returned by rl_get_screen_size.
    
    Tested on x86_64-linux.
