[bug #13146] make tabs and trailing spaces visible

[Jan Engelhardt]

Follow-up Comment #24, bug #13146 (project mc):

I noticed I cannot just use the Unicode characters (like p->ch = 0xB7), as
that does not take into account terminals that are not in UTF-8. But the fix
is simple enough (p->ch = SLsmg_Is_Unicode ? 0xB7 : ".").

BTW, I also implemented the MS Word-style "tabs", i.e. printing a right-arrow
in the middle of a tab. I sort of prefer it over the "<---->" tabs. It is a
patch that currently replaces the existing tab mechanism, but IMHO this should
all be made configurable once the maintainers decide to wake up and give me
some sort of ok...
