ls: add -T support and fix --classify output (#7616)

* add -T option parsing

* add usage of tab_size in display_grid

* fix test_ls_columns with \t

since this behavior is on by default

* update test_tabsize_formatting

* use grid DEFAULT_SEPARATOR_SIZE

* update Tabs

* fix test with column width

* fix cspell

* fix linter warning on match bool

* add comment for 0 tab_size

* update tabsize test with -C

* update one of the tabs tests to use -x

* remove comment and split tests for both x/C args
