browser: redo the layout when the window _might_ have resized

The user may have resized the window not only while in the help viewer
but also while at the Search or Goto prompt.  Ensure that after all of
them the browser rebuilds the list according to the current dimensions.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?67294.

Bug existed since version 2.5.3, commit 813f9f72.
