Subject: Abruptly disappearing status bug.

- In the basta.update_status function's path abbreviating
  loop, we must test whether the path can be abbreviated,
  and bail, before doing the abbreviation. If we do the
  test after the abbreviation, we create a one off error
  where we bail the loop with an overlong status line that
  does not fit even though we could have abbreviated the
  path by one more component. And then the status line
  is surprisingly blanked.
