For a non-minibuffer frames, the calculations are in
resize_mini_window.  They are quite simple, but if something there is
not clear, please ask.  The documentation of max-mini-window-height in
the ELisp manual can also help.

Note that the calculations in resize_mini_window are in pixels, and a
"line height" is interpreted in terms of the frame's canonical
character height.
