Wiki panel layout: Content clipping and unresponsive at smaller breakpoints

Problem

The Wiki is experiencing layout issues when using the panel layout, specifically:

  • Content is clipping/being cut off
  • Layout is not responsive at smaller breakpoints

These issues occur in both GDK and GitLab.com (observed in personal projects).

Current Behavior

When viewing Wiki pages in the panel layout:

  • Content gets clipped and is not fully visible
  • The layout does not adapt properly at smaller screen sizes

Expected Behavior

  • All Wiki content should be fully visible without clipping
  • Layout should be responsive and adapt gracefully across all breakpoints (mobile: 320px-414px, tablet: 768px-1024px, desktop: 1280px+)
  • Content should remain readable and accessible at all screen sizes

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to a Wiki page
  2. View the page using panel layout
  3. Resize browser to smaller breakpoints
  4. Observe content clipping and layout issues

Impact

  • Usability issues for mobile and tablet users
  • Inconsistent experience across breakpoints

Acceptance Criteria

  • Wiki content displays fully without clipping at all breakpoints
    • Panel layout is responsive from 320px to 2560px+ widths
    • No horizontal scrolling or overflow issues
    • Tested on mobile (320px, 375px, 414px), tablet (768px, 1024px), and desktop (1280px, 1440px, 1920px, 2560px) breakpoints
    • Tested with Fluid and Fixed layouts
    • Tested with old UI on both modes: Fluid and Fixed layouts
    • Test risizable wiki sidebar on all modes

Additional Context

  • Related to the panel layout implementation in Wiki.
  • May need to review CSS and responsive design patterns used in other GitLab features (Issues, MRs) for consistency.
