This won't catch the case of a single very long line (which wraps to
produce several screen lines).

Also, unconditionally enlarging the mini-window is not a good idea
because it might already be tall enough.  Try the above in the recipe
posted by Juri, but then type "C-c C-c" several times -- doesn't it
keep enlarging the mini-window with each "C-c C-c"?
