Wrap long get-started commands instead of clipping them - #4623

Conversation
The command chip had a fixed height and no wrapping, so a long command lost its end on hub pages. The Elasticsearch hub shows its start-local command without the final `| sh`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Severity: P3 (Low)
The wrapping fix has no automated layout regression coverage. The existing get-started option tests only check emitted HTML, so they would still pass if commands became clipped again. Add a browser-level case with a long command and an unbroken URL in a constrained column, plus a short-command control that verifies the 37px height.

No existing browser-level layout test harness to extend here, so I'll leave this to the visual checks rather than add one for a single CSS rule.

…hub (elastic#9073) ## Summary Many search use cases don't need Kibana, so the **Run locally** option on the [Elasticsearch hub](https://www.elastic.co/docs/products/elasticsearch) now gives the Elasticsearch-only command: ```sh curl -fsSL https://elastic.co/start-local | sh -s -- --esonly ``` The description tells readers to delete the `--esonly` flag to also run Kibana. The flag is documented in the [start-local README](https://github.com/elastic/start-local#install-only-elasticsearch). ## Dependency [elastic/docs-builder#4623](elastic/docs-builder#4623). Until this gets picked up in a docs release, the hub's command box cuts off long commands, so readers can't see `| sh -s --esonly`. ## Generative AI disclosure 1.

Long commands in a
{get-started}option now wrap instead of being cut off, so readers see the whole command.Affects: Site UI
Why
The command chip has a fixed height and scrolls sideways, so a long command loses its end with no sign that it continues.
What
The chip grows to fit its content and the command wraps. A one-line command keeps the chip's 37px height. The design-system hub layout already wraps commands.
Check on the preview
start-localcommand in Run locally wraps and shows the final| sh.Related: #4622 includes this change.
Screenshots
Before: a long command is cut off
After: the same command wraps onto two lines
