SUMMARY
Dolphin has an awesome feature that is the "Split screen" (accessible via the
Toolbar or by pressing F3). However, when the split view is enabled, the column
widths do not adjust to fit the new size (which is now half of the original
size). So when we need to see the values of columns such as "Size" or
"Modified" we need to use the horizontal scrollbar to be able to see them.

I believe a better user experience would be to resize column widths so that
they fit the split window. This way the user can see item's size, modify date,
etc without having to use the horizontal scrollbar.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. Enable Split view (press F3)
3. Notice that columns to the right are no longer visible and if the user
wishes to see them, he/she needs to use the scrollbar.

OBSERVED RESULT
The columns are not visible and require the use of the scrollbar.

EXPECTED RESULT
The columns should automatically resize to be visible without having to resort
to the scrollbar.
