unicode characters offset table content

@theonesean placed a horse emoji in our Trello board and it's been staring at me for two days now. I can't handle it anymore. How can I do any work with this thing just... there. Watching me. It's taken over my life. But more relevant to this project, it seems to have offset the entire table, since (despite being a single character) it uses two character spaces when printed to the terminal, so the rest of the row is being pushed over by one char-width.

There seems to be a discussion to add a std.utf.displayWidth function to the Phobos library here which would be immensely useful in this situation, but I can't seem to find out if it has resulted in anything added to Phobos.

Upon further consideration, this isn't really worth the amount of effort it might take to fix. For now, we might just strip all non-ASCII output until someone has the time to work on this.
