mpd: add scrolling support and truncate control

Widget takes an optional argument that controls truncate and
scrolling. In case of a number truncate is used, it represents the
maximum lenght of widget text. In case of a table scrolling is used,
1st field is maximum lenght, and 2nd is widget name. An example:
{24, "mpdwidget"}
