The 'o_text_overflow' class whlie provided on any field, is used to
have classic ellipsis (...) for very long string. However, it is
implemented the way that it occupies the available width for the field
tag it even if the the string is small.
The same class is also utilized in some field widgets like email, phone,
URL etc. But it has a small side-effect due to full width occupancy.
Because the above widgets rendered an anchor tag, the clickable area is on
the whole available width instead of simply on the content provided in anchor
tag. So even if user clicks on the empty area of that field, the click
action is performed (for example, in email field widget, default mail client
pops-up) which should not happen. It should behave like clickable m2o fields
where the action is performed only when clicking the content and not on the
empty area.
With this commit, we wrap the anchor tag, within a container div tag. Here,
the overflow class will be on the container div which will do it's job to
prevent the long strings from breaking the UI, and the anchor tag being its
child, will not be the full width, thus limiting the clickable area. This
commit also makes the related test cases more robust by checking proper
classes for particular widgets.
