Add column layout skeleton and git-column
A column option string consists of many token separated by either
a space or a comma. A token belongs to one of three groups:
- enabling: always, never and auto
- layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all)
- other future tuning flags
git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants
column layout, but not to mess with its own output code. Simpler output
code can be changed to use column layout code directly.
