Fix minimum gutter line number spacing (zed-industries#18021)

I was inspecting how Zed did the layout in the editor, specifically for
the gutter, and noticed that `em_width * X` is being used as the 'width
of X consecutive characters'. Howevever, that math didn't work for me,
because em_width doesn't account for the space between characters, so
you can't just multiply it by a character count.

One place this is actually noticeable is in the logic for
`min_width_for_number_on_gutter`, where we try to reserve 4 characters
of line number space. However, once you actually hit 4 characters, the
actual width is bigger, causing things to resize. This seems clearly
counter to the intent of the code.

It seems the more correct logic is to use `em_advance` which accounts
for the space between the characters. I am leaving the rest of the uses
of `em_width` for generic padding. It is also possible that
`column_pixels()` would be the more correct fix here, but it wasn't
straightforward to use that due to it residing EditorElement source
file.

On my MacBook this increases the width of the gutter by 6 pixels when
there are <999 lines in the file, otherwise it's identical.

It might be worth doing some more general audit of some of the other
uses of em_width as a concept. (e.g. `git_blame_entries_width`)
