Misaligned completion suggestions with company mode

[henningninneh]

Describe the bug The completion suggestions are not properly aligned in the second and third row.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start Emacs 29 with the minimal test configuration using emacs --init-directory=[test-directory].
2. Open a markdown buffer or manually activate Citar.
3. Enter a citation, starting with @.
4. Observe misaligned suggestions (see screenshot).

Expected behavior The suggestions should be aligned and the number of spaces between the columns accordingly adjusted.

I missed that was in company. Is it possible it's a bug there, or a configuration issue?

In the capf-only corfu, there's no such such issue, per the screenshot on the README.

I see. It's a configuration issue. Thanks for the pointer!

(setq company-tooltip-align-annotations t) does the trick. See here.
