bug: output can span many lines, making it difficult to read #276

Description

@popey

What happened:

  • Wanted to scan a container to get a list of licenses.
  • Ran grant check redpandadata/connectors:latest
  • Got output that was very difficult to read/parse at my default 178 chars wide terminal
Image
  • Packages with multiple licenses result in v e r y w i d e output
  • Zooming in/out to view the text actually crashed my terminal (Ghostty) completely.

For example:
