Improve resizing a box. libgnt used to always change the size of the first widget. So in a lot of dialogs (e.g. the log viewer, the add-buddy dialogs etc.) only the labels would be resized, and the entry/comboboxes, resizing which would be more useful, would never be resized. So change that behaviour to cycle through all the widgets in the box for resize. Fixes #11580, #7843.
