Wez Furlong 225e7a1243 introduce unicode_version config
This is a fairly far-reaching commit. The idea is:

* Introduce a unicode_version config that specifies the default level
  of unicode conformance for each newly created Terminal (each Pane)
* The unicode_version is passed down to the `grapheme_column_width`
  function which interprets the width based on the version
* `Cell` records the width so that later calculations don't need to
  know the unicode version

In a subsequent diff, I will introduce an escape sequence that allows
setting/pushing/popping the unicode version so that it can be overridden
via eg: a shell alias prior to launching an application that uses a
different version of unicode from the default.

This approach allows output from multiple applications with differing
understanding of unicode to coexist on the same screen a little more
sanely.

Note that the default `unicode_version` is set to 9, which means that
emoji presentation selectors are now by-default ignored.  This was
selected to better match the level of support in widely deployed
applications.

I expect to raise that default version in the future.

Also worth noting: there are a number of callers of
`unicode_column_width` in things like overlays and lua helper functions
that pass `None` for the unicode version: these will assume the latest
known-to-wezterm/termwiz version of unicode to be desired. If those
overlays do things with emoji presentation selectors, then there may be
some alignment artifacts. That can be tackled in a follow up commit.
