'display-buffer-pop-up-window' calls 'window--try-to-split-window' which
calls 'split-window-preferred-function' whose default value is
'split-window-sensibly' - the function whose behavior we are talking
about here.  Presently, this is the only way 'split-window-sensibly'
gets called in the Emacs sources.
