    Improve psql's tabular display of wrapped-around data by inserting markers · 1753337c

    in the formerly-always-blank columns just to left and right of the data.
    Different marking is used for a line break caused by a newline in the data
    than for a straight wraparound.  A newline break is signaled by a "+" in the
    right margin column in ASCII mode, or a carriage return arrow in UNICODE mode.
    Wraparound is signaled by a dot in the right margin as well as the following
    left margin in ASCII mode, or an ellipsis symbol in the same places in UNICODE
    mode.  "\pset linestyle old-ascii" is added to make the previous behavior
    available if anyone really wants it.
    
    In passing, this commit also cleans up a few regression test files that
    had unintended spacing differences from the current actual output.
