#2988: Mutt should recognize tab (width)

In mutt_strwidth() there's a check for printable chars which excludes tab
chars resulting in a width of 1. However, this is likely not the display
width resulting in wrong wrapping and possibly other undesired effects.

It's also important to check for tab, because more than one release of Solaris has some breakage in ctype for this character, categorizing it as a printable character...
