Bug description:
Browser's Settings screen shows an example of a checkbox where its
label does not fit in the available screen width, so it is ellipsized.
<https://launchpadlibrarian.net/206607288/half-fixed.png> The only way
to see what the option means is to switch the phone to landscape.
Even if an app developer avoids this, in portrait mode, on the
smallest shipping phone, for every string in their app, in English,
they are quite likely not to check their app in every shipping
language. And the app may not provide a landscape mode at all. So
ellipsizing the label is not an ideal solution.
<https://goo.gl/qc5GV7>: "A checkbox or switch should almost always
have a label, which can be tapped just like the checkbox or switch
itself. If there is not enough room to display the label on one line,
by default it should wrap to multiple lines. It should not be cropped
or ellipsized unless the app developer specifically requests this,
typically for text that they do not control the length of (such as a
Wi-Fi network name, filename, or bookmark title)."
