Disabling word wrap in Terminal changes font

[parsley72]

Type: Bug

When I run a build task defined in tasks.json it outputs to the Terminal window. The lines can be quite long so to disable word wrap I do Alt Z. But this also changes the font to something weird which makes the text hard to read.

The canvas is being stretched beyond the max texture size, this is tracked upstream at https://github.com/xtermjs/xterm.js/issues/4186

Workaround is to size the terminal manually via Terminal: Set Fixed Dimensions when there's a very long wrapped line like this.
