bug#53189: 29.0.50; Avoid window split in project-shell

[martin rudalics <rudalics@gmx.at>]

 > In order to avoid splitting the current window when I open a shell-mode buffer with `project-shell' I have this in my init.el:
 >
 > (setq-default display-buffer-alist '((".+shell*"
 >                                        (display-buffer-same-window)
 >                                        (reusable-frames . nil))))
 >
 > The first time I use `C-x p s` I am getting the behaviour I want. But if I do this:
 >
 > - `C-x p s`
 > - `C-x b RET`
 > - `C-x p s`
 >
 > The current window is split and the shell-mode buffer appears on the
 > side.

 > How can I avoid the window splitting?
