wcwidth: Ensure width 1, not 2, for ambiguous characters.
Reported by Kiyoshi KANAZAWA <yoi_no_myoujou@yahoo.co.jp>
via Akim Demaille <akim.demaille@gmail.com>.
* m4/wcwidth.m4 (gl_FUNC_WCWIDTH): Check the width of U+2202. Use an
en_US.UTF-8 locale, since that is more likely to be present than an
fr_FR.UTF-8 locale.
* tests/test-wcwidth.c (main): Check the width of U+2202.
* doc/posix-functions/wcwidth.texi: Mention the issue.
