Motivation for this change

Disables the internal wcwidth implementation of fish. This is important when typing characters such as ⚡ (U+26A1 HIGH VOLTAGE SIGN), otherwise fish computes a different character width than the terminal. See fish-shell/fish-shell#4816 and #53022 (comment)

Before (comparison with alacritty):
fish-before

After:
fish-after
