Subject: [PATCH] Remove assert in String::String(Codepoint, ColumnCount)

codepoint_width is locale dependent, and we could end up with it
returning a different value depending on the locale. It is better
to return a string of the wrong column length than fail on assert
in this case as we cannot fix it anyway.

Fixes #1489
