fix(wlr/taskbar): let task titles shrink within available space

Browse Source 
The taskbar currently requests enough width for every task title, which can push right-side modules off-screen when many windows are open. Allow task buttons to share the taskbar allocation and ellipsize title labels instead of forcing the whole module to grow.

This keeps neighboring modules visible while preserving the existing taskbar click actions and formatting behavior.
