util: refactor inspecting long lines

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/BridgeAR/util-inspect-long-lines into master

Using the util.inspect compact mode set to something else than true resulted in breaking long lines in case the line would exceed the breakLength option and if it contained whitespace and or new lines.

It turned out that this behavior was less useful than originally expected and it is now changed to only break on line breaks if the breakLength option is exceeded for the inspected string. This should be align better with the user expectation than the former behavior.

Fixes: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/27690
