Summary

Use libbsddialog autosize for inputbox (at least for height for now). So delete f_dialog_inputbox_size() of bsdconfig because is built on dialog/Xdialog and could create some problem in the long term.

Moreover (not in screenshots), add a --hline string: "Use TAB and Enter to select OK", because the UI dialog/bsddialog is different: dialog does not require TAB to switch the focus on buttons for the inputbox. I could change this in the next version (form refactoring is in the TODO list).
