Description

@R-Broadley

Environment

Windows Version: 10.0.18362.836
Terminal Version: 0.11.1333.0

Steps to reproduce

Paste the following into the terminal (command prompt or WSL): ◼◼◼◼◼◼◼◼◼

Expected behavior

The characters are normally spaced. Screen shot is from Version: 0.11.1251.0.
This has been the previous behaviour and is how other terminals (tested in gnome-terminal) display the same setup.

Actual behavior

The characters are too wide / too much spacing between them and this breaks the layout where mono fonts are expected and relied upon for layout.
Screenshot is from Version: 0.11.1333.0.
