bug#18385: 24.3.93; posn-at-point doesn't account for tab-width

1. New, empty buffer.
2. (insert "a\tb")
3. (posn-actual-col-row (posn-at-point))
=> (3 . 0)

It should probably return (9 . 0).

I'm not 100% this is actually a bug, but (posn-actual-col-row
(posn-at-point)) returns the "visually" correct column values in the
more complex cases (after text with `display' or `compose-region' called
on it), so not accounting for tab-width looks surprising.
