[bug] Can't place call from call log, if text length exeeds screen size

How to reproduce:

  1. Use Finnish GUI language (you'll see why soon)
  2. Set some contact's, with multiple phone numbers, one mobile phone number to international format, e.g. +358401234567
  3. Set that number to private - translates to "Yksityinen"
  4. Set that number to mobile phone - translates to "Matkapuhelin"
  5. Call that number from People app - you can place the call
  6. Go to call log, and tap the contact name
  7. All numbers are shown, and note that "Yksityinen | Matkapuhelin | +358401234567" is wider than the screen
  8. Try to call by tapping the number - nothing will happen. However, tapping some other number from same contact works.

You can fix this by just replacing the +358 with 0 which shortens the total text length just enough, but this only works for same-country calls. Alternatiely, set the number type to work "Työ" which is shorter, but may not be correct choice.

This was a fun one to hunt down. Seems to me that wider-than-screen cases break the clickable area somehow...

Edit: You can reproduce this bug in English GUI just by adding a personal mobile number having 15+ characters to excess the screen width.

Note that it works from the favorites but not from the alphabetical list. So the problem seems to exist in the context menu of the alphabetical list of people.
