Subject: [PATCH] Set height to item count if less items than lines

This patch sets the height to the count of items if the item count
is less than specified lines.

Ex:
    printf "Item1\nItem2" | wmenu -l 100
    will give wmenu a height of 2 rather than 100 since there is only 2
    items.

closes #64
