tabulate.tcl: attempt to estimate correct width in the fixed font if string contains wide glyphs by alignment related calculation (consider Chinese or Japanese hieroglyphs)

tabulate can not correctly deal with Chinese character

One Chinese character occupy two English character space, example： 中国 1234 so the tabulate has problem with Chinese character
