patch 7.4.2109
Problem: Setting 'display' to "lastline" is a drastic change, while
omitting it results in lots of "@" lines.
Solution: Add "truncate" to show "@@@" for a truncated line.

Change the way text is displayed. This is comma separated list of
flags:
lastline When included, as much as possible of the last line
- in a window will be displayed. When not included, a
- last line that doesn't fit is replaced with "@" lines.
+ in a window will be displayed. "@@@" is put in the
+ last columns of the last screen line to indicate the
+ rest of the line is not displayed.
+ truncate Like "lastline", but "@@@" is displayed in the first
+ column of the last screen line. Overrules "lastline".
uhex Show unprintable characters hexadecimal as <xx>
instead of using ^C and ~C.
+ When neither "lastline" or "truncate" is included, a last line that
+ doesn't fit is replaced with "@" lines.
