Benjamin Sago 449592c150 Do column width calculations ourselves (speedup) 
Instead of stripping the ANSI formatting characters from our strings, work out the length without them and use that. This is per-column, but most of them are simple (just the same number of characters in the non-coloured string).

Sometimes, this is really simple: for example, trwxrwxrwx permissions strings are always going to be ten characters long, and the strings that get returned are chock full of ANSI escape codes.

This should have a small benefit on performance.

Installation

exa is written in Rust. You'll have to use the nightly -- I try to keep it up to date with the latest version when possible. Once you have it set up, a simple cargo build will pull in all the dependencies and compile exa.
