maxcolwidths is broken with fancy_outline

[yurivict]

This testcase:

from tabulate import tabulate

headers = ['Header#1', 'Header#2', 'Header#3']
data = []
data.append(['Alpha beta gama zeta omega', 'The weather was exceptionally good that day again', 'The files were concatenated and archived for posterity.'])
data.append(['Delta omega beta alpha nu and the rest', 'The weather was exceptionally good that day', 'They decided to engage in many businesses and all of them were successful.'])

print(tabulate(
    data,
    headers=headers,
    tablefmt='fancy_outline',
    maxcolwidths=[None, None, 8]))

produces this output:

The same is true with github formatting.

For me it seems that fancy_outline works well:

But github tablefmt still has broken.
