[Bug 1690541] [NEW] Scrolled windows in update-manager are too small to read

Public bug reported:

In update-manager, scrolled windows do not expand properly. Many times,
the display will only be one line. I see it on the download progress
view, the install details (terminal-like) view, and would-you-like-to-
keep-or-replace config differences view. In each one, the details window
does not expand to the full height of the window. If the expansion
hasn't been done at all, the view will only be one line high, but in the
download progress view, it can sometimes be half-height.

Prior reports (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-
manager/+bug/1623856) indicate that it has been fixed, but that is not
the case, and in the prior "fixed" report, the maintainer asked that a
new bug be created.

It is very difficult to get screenshots because the window only appears
for a short time, but I have attached one such screenshot below.

Ubuntu: Zesty
update-manager: 1:17.04.3
