Subject: Allow string lengths to account for escapes.  Now all calls to
 calculate column width in -Tascii, -Tpdf, and -Tps will account for "more
 real" string lengths.

Example:

.Bl -tag -width \s[+123424]foo
.It bar
baz
.El

The size escape will be correctly tossed.

.Bl -tag -width \(aqbar
.It \(aqbar
baz
.El

The \(aq will be correctly handled.

-- rendering frontend code can calculate widths only for plain strings,
-  not for strings containing escape sequences.  For example, this
-  hinders calculation of the indent required for .Nm \&[ in text(1).

 - another example of the same problem:
   .Bl -tag -width "\eD{format}XX" -compact
   in OpenBSD ksh(1) gives the wrong width
