28.3; extra width not renderes correctly in TUI when making a character wider |

When I make a character wider by changing the char width table, it isn't
sometimes with shows and sometimes it doesn't.
1. Start up emacs with this command.
emacs -Q --eval '(progn (set-char-table-range char-width-table #x221e 2) (set-char-table-range char-width-table #x2014 2))'
2. Type "—a" into the scratch buffer. The em dash should be correctly rendered two cells wide, and the a shouldn't overlap with the em dash.
3. `M-x redraw-screen`. The em dash should now overlap the a.
consistently works with:
- Termux, iosevka
- xfce4-terminal, iosevka and source code pro
- Kitty, iosevka

I'm therefore closing this bug report.
