Issue page now only with first 2 fields:
The attached patch add a new option called show_under_description for long text custom fields that if is checked, render that fields under the description field.
If you find this change useful, I can add tests to the patch. Also, any feedback regarding the patch or this functionality is welcome.
I think that this issue is related to #3543, but with another implementation.

- add missing class "attribute" to custom field div
- wrap the value of the custom fields which text formatting enabled in DIV with wiki class
The patch was tested against 3.2.0.stable.15067 and doesn't break any test from my checks.

New version of the patch:
- renamed the custom field setting from "show under description" to "full width layout" (I wasn't able to find a better name)
- the setting "full width layout" applies in both views: show and edit issue.
- the option is now displayed only for "Issues custom fields" of type "Long text"
- added tests
- some refactoring.
There are some users in the related ticket (#3543) which require to have this feature implemented so any feedback is welcome.

PS: there is also plugin: - latest fork: https://github.com/mi-yo/redmine_multi_column_custom_fields
but it has some issues (not 100% style, in edit mode the field is still just 1-column)
