Prior to this commit, the left sidebar in Discuss had a max width of 300px.

This commit allows larger widths based on the screen width. This is dependent on screen width, similar to o-mail-ActionPanel.o_resizable_panel.

It also removes the styling setting the max width to 300px.

This helps make discuss more configurable, and makes it possible to see more of the description in live chat conversations. The sizes are set to match the max size of the right panel, so that they don't overlap, and there's suitable space in the center for the chat itself.
