[PATCH v4 01/13] Save terminal width before setting up pager

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

term_columns() checks for terminal width via ioctl(2). After
redirecting, stdin is no longer terminal to get terminal width.

Check terminal width and save it before redirect stdin in
setup_pager() and let term_columns() reuse the value.
