Maybe an optionin the long term here would be not to use wcwidth at all,
but use libunistring functions like u8_strwidth.  It would probably
remove the issue of locale.  The only requirement would be to make sure
that the input string is UTF-8 encoded such that it can be converted to
uint8_t without risk of error.
