[PATCH 2/2] user32/listbox: Update the size in SetColumnWidth unconditionally

[Gabriel Ivăncescu]

Now I had some time to think about this (was tracking another bug ;)
)... I think if I go with this idea, I'll have to revamp the patch and
not check that within UpdateSize itself, since UpdatePage may have to
be called even if width & height don't change. To avoid calling
GetClientRect twice, I thought of factoring it like this:

First, take out the GetClientRect from UpdateSize (and add two
parameters to it, the width & height). Of course, at WM_SIZE do the
GetClientRect portion and pass that to UpdateSize, so it will be
identical to before (in behavior).

Second, in SetColumnWidth, use GetClientRect and check if width &
height changed at all; if they did, set the column_width and call
UpdateSize. If they did not, then check if column_width changed and
call UpdatePage (i.e. the original code's behavior).

Would that be better? Or am I overcomplicating it and the current
patch is fine here?
