#662: wlanconfig ath0 list scan results cut long AP names

The list scan command crops AP name to n characters (don't remember exacty
how many).
This makes it impossible to use it from scripts to select preferred AP,
when AP name is long.
My suggestion would be to work like for example dpkg -l listings -
normally package name is limited, but you can get full name by passing
COLUMNS=240 or something similar to the command.
So I suggest that
COLUMNS=240 wlanconfig ath0 list scan
would print long AP names and other fields properly, forgetting nice
formatting, otherwise we could just crop the name.
