Improve accounting of columns in the presence of tabulation characters #68

At the moment, any tabulation character counts as one towards the right margin in fixed format code. Better accounting is needed to properly detect the portions of text that exceed the right margin (and to take tab-width configuration into account).

Note: The COBOL plugin may provide an own tab-with that is "area-based", at least some dialects do that. Obviously, it would be good to add that to GnuCOBOL first :-)
