Older macOS reports a variation selector as a spacing character (wcwidth() returns 1) instead of a zero-width combining mark, so curses cannot put it in the same cell as its base. Skip that assertion there. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Older macOS reports a variation selector as a spacing character (
wcwidth()returns 1) instead of a zero-width combining mark, socursescannot place it in the same cell as its base character andtest_addch_emojiraisesValueError.cursesgroups cells bywcwidth(), the same as ncurses, so the assertion is only valid where the platform reports the selector as zero-width; skip it elsewhere.The failure is confirmed on macOS 14.2 (reported in the issue) and gone by macOS 26, which CI runs, so 26 is the conservative cutoff.
