flag to use a time other than modtime (-c, -u, or -U), the output would
actually be sorted by the specified time rather than size. This does
alter the behavior in the case where both -S and -t are specified. Now,
-S is always preferred. Previously, -t was preferred if one of -c, -u, or
-U was specified, and -S was preferred otherwise. Perhaps -S and -t should
override each other (last one specified wins).
files is too much and hard to follow. Instead, make the -I option
just mean "do not automatically set -A for root". That is, if -A
is explicitly set, -I is ignored. Also, document -I in usage().

sort(1). This functionality is provided by the -S option now, and it
is useful even though a similar effect is achievable with sort(1),
since the latter doesn't work in combination with -h. This option is
also present in NetBSD, OpenBSD, and GNU fileutils, so there's clearly
a demand for it.

-r can be used to reverse the sort if that is desired.

regardless whether the output is to a terminal or not. As this is
consistent with the SUSPv2 specification (even though we do not
otherwise fully implement SUSPv2's ls(1) options), document this as it
is now, rather than trying to change the behaviour itself.

have no entries to print (either due to an empty directory or an
error). This makes the -l and -s options more consistent, like
Solaris and (Debian) Linux. To make this happen, tweak two
optimizations on the second call to display():
- Don't skip display() altogether, even if list == NULL.
- Don't skip the call to the printfn in display() if we
need to print the total.

LC_CTYPE setting) when determining which characters are printable.
This is an often-requested feature.
Use wcwidth() to determine the number of column positions a character
takes up, although there are still a few places left where we assume
1 byte = 1 column position, e.g. line-wrapping when handling the -m option.
The error handling here is somewhat more complicated than usual: we do
our best to show what we can of a filename in the presence of conversion
errors, instead of simply aborting.

1. Sizes in the range 1000 -- 1023 units require four characters width
for the integer; increase the field width to accomodate this.
2. Sizes in the range 9.95 -- 10 units were being displayed as "10.0"
units; adjust the logic to fix this, and now that we've got an extra
character of field width, print fractional units if the size is less
than 99.95 units.
3. Don't display sub-byte precision.
This should mean that the following sizes are displayed:
0B .. 1023B
1.0U .. 9.9U
10.0U .. 99.9U
100U .. 1023U
for values of U in "KMGTPE".
