list-view: Hide Star column titleclear-starred-column-header

While "Star" is 4 chars long in English, it's longer in other languages.

This means the column may become much wider than needed for displaying
a small star icon, which both looks bad and takes away space from other
columns.

Since this is a column of star symbols, we don't really need a title.

But setting an empty title makes the columns too narrow (16px), which
gets covered by the overlay scrollbar.

So, in addition to removing the title label, set a 48 fixed width for
the column, which provides enough gutter for the overlay scrollbar.
