Intergrated termial shows extra space after every character

Issue Type: Bug

VS Code;s integrated terminal seems to be confusing UTF-16 and UTF-8 some where. The results are apparent on Linux systems which don't default to UTF-16.

VS Code version: Code 1.68.1 (30d9c6cd9483b2cc586687151bcbcd635f373630, 2022-06-15T02:58:26.441Z) OS version: Linux x64 5.15.0-39-generic Restricted Mode: No

This might be due to your font used for terminal not being a monospace. All characters are spaced to meet the width of the widest character in that font.

Thanks had a feeling there was something obvious i was over looking. Definitely font related I'll make a note of that
