While the columnizer can be used directly, it requires output code
change. The helpers instead redirect all output to "git column" and
let "git column" do all the layout work. This keeps code change
minimum. All we need is:
start_columnizer();
/* do some complex computation and output to stdout */
stop_columnizer();
