terminal: Cannot paste "─" character in WSL
Environment
Windows build number: [Version 10.0.18363.1016]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.1.2021.0
Any other software?
Steps to reproduce
Copy the “─” character and attempt to paste it into WSL in Windows Terminal or conhost.
Expected behavior
The character is pasted fine.
Actual behavior
It is not pasted fine.
This is an odd bug that’s really hard to google, so it might not actually be a microsoft/terminal bug? However, I can successfully paste “─” into WSL via the IntelliJ terminal which I believe isn’t using terminal/conhost.
I can paste this character fine into cmd, powershell, and pswh (both in Terminal, and in the windows opened by running those commands via Run, which I assume is/means conhost?).
I originally noticed this when copying from the output of audit-app:
┌────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤

├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤

└────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Pasting the above into WSL via Terminal or conhost results in:
┌┬┐
│ low │ Prototype Pollution (#577) │
├┼┤
│ Package │ lodash v3.10.1 │
├┼┤
│ Patched in │ >=4.17.5 │

└┴┘
This behaviour happens regardless of what program I copy the text from.
