B2IA messages have Ctrl-C characters in them.

I can't test it now, but this is probably due to an upstream change to make some control characters visible. The implementation changes them to the .notdef glyph, which is code 0. In our port that transforms into a NULL character that is not added to the string and we get characters and advances out of sync.

We could revert that or change the 0 (either there or in FontHaiku) for the replacement character, another non-character (that hopefully won't have a glyph and so come as .notdef), the white square (as was proposed when we had a similar problem before) or whatever. The same should be done wherever we return the advances.
