CONDENSED_MODE too wide

What's going wrong?

Display is too wide.

How could we reproduce this issue?

And narrower

It only outputs correctly when the terminal is very wide.

Same problem with earlier version (5.3.1).

See also #4335 and #4906.

Start by running pm2 list in a narrower terminal and compare it with the reported 138-column output; inspect the CLI table-rendering entry point responsible for CONDENSED_MODE. Done means the process list fits narrower terminals while remaining readable, without reproducing the reported excessive width.
