bug#27427: 26.0.50; Native line numbers lead to display error in company-mode popup

[Alexander Miller]

As requested by Eli on reddit, a proper bug report about the company issue:

Using the new native line numbers in emacs -q
alongside company mode results in line numbers not being rendered in
lines where the company-mode popup is active. This is the same as in
(n)linum-mode, however the company popup, except the first line, is also
shifted to the left into the space line numbers used to occupy:

It looks like there's a general issue of overlay using packages not
expecting the space now being used by line numbers. For example the
fill-column-indicator package draws its indicator too far to the left
and swerves off with the comments at the top for some reason:

(Don't know why the company popup looks even worse here, that doesn't
happen when I load my full config).
