[bug-gawk] Exposing wcwidth(3) as a built-in function

As far as I can tell, GAWK does not expose wcwidth(3) which surprises me
since AWK specializes in processing text. I know I could implement this
myself using an extension, but has exposing wcwidth(3) as a built-in
function been considered in the past? If so, is there any particular
reason it was rejected / not implemented?
