When playing with long fbwhiptail/whiptail messages, this commit played around the long string using fold.

Which gave the exact output of what will be inside of the fbwhiptail prompt, fixed to 70 chars width:
'''
This will replace the encrypted container content and its LUKS Disk
Recovery Key.
The passphrase associated with this key will be asked from the user
under the following conditions:
1-Every boot if no Disk Unlock Key was added to the TPM
2-If the TPM fails (hardware failure)
3-If the firmware has been tampered with/modified by the user
This process requires you to type the current LUKS Disk Recovery Key
passphrase and will delete the LUKS TPM Disk Unlock Key slot, if set
up, by setting a default boot LUKS key slot (1) if present.
At the next prompt, you may be asked to select which file corresponds
to the LUKS device container.
Hit Enter to continue.

Therefore, for long prompts in the future, one can just deal with "\n 1-" alignments to be respected in prompts and have fold deal with cutting the length of strings properly.
