Max width option

It would be nice to have a max width option as an alternative to a set width.

Yes, boxen is awesome. I'm using those settings to beautify the text and make them easy to copy and paste.

    options.borderStyle = {
        topLeft: '─',
        topRight: '─',
        bottomLeft: '─',
        bottomRight: '─',
        horizontal: '─',
        vertical: '	',
    }
    options.padding = {
        left: 0,
        right: 0,
    }

It seems that we must define a symbol on both the vertical sides.
Therefore, if I’m using vertical: '' the entire box disappears. I also failed when trying to use padding left: -1 while leaving a space on the vertical side with vertical: ' '.
I would appreciate it if boxen allow no space on the vertical sides of the line.

@waylaidwanderer What would you say about width could be either a number or a callback function that can determine a width. Like:

options.width = (availableWidth) => {
  return Math.max(30, availableWidth)
}

This could be a way to set a max width of 30.

That looks like a decent flexible solution.
