From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This should all line up:

  Column 1	Column 2
  --------	--------
  A		B
  ABCD		EFGH
  SPACES        Instead of Tabs

Even with multi-byte UTF8 characters:

  Column 1	Column 2
  --------	--------
  Ä		B
  åäö		100
  A Møøse	once bit my sister..

This breaks a few tests in t4201, that tests "git shortlog".

 - One passes "git log" output to "git shortlog" to use the latter
   as a filter and does not expect the output of the former to be
   de-tabified.

 - The other expects that "git shortlog", when it reads the first
   line of the commit and produces the output itself, does not
   de-tabify it.

Mark them as expecting failure for now.
