Add vertical scrollbar to sidebars that extend outside the viewport

Viewing overflowing sidebar content requires scrolling the entire page which is annoying and causes the reader to lose their place.

Use CSS `calc` to approximate height of the sidebar (`100vh` - height of the masthead) and apply `overflow-y: auto` to add vertical scrollbars when needed.

Fixes mmistakes#706
