Increase width of bandwidth and frequency indicators

[vjr]

Avoid indicator positions shifting when displaying different values.

Instead of doing this we should use tabular numbers. There's a built-in style class for it in Granite https://github.com/elementary/granite/blob/c4f258db9b6028c8b793f01d2f8248800726ce0a/lib/Constants.vala#L269

I'm unable to get this working. Seems to need to set width_chars (and maybe even max_width_chars) on the labels regardless.

I've done the following in my local changes:

• Added dependency('granite-9', version: '>=9.0.0') to meson.build files.
• Called Granite.init (); in the Indicator.vala construct block.
• Called label.add_css_class (Granite.CssClass.NUMERIC); in the base IndicatorWidget.vala class.

The labels still resize depending on the unit text length like "bytes" or "MB" and the numbers don't seem to appear monospace, what am I missing? Halp!

I wonder if it's just OS9 being OS9 (something missing in the daily build) at the moment? Let me try real quick on my OS8 daily installation.

Ah nevermind, it needs OS9 wingpanel-9 lib, so my status is still: Halp!

@vjr search for tabular number in the codevase. I think I've used them in the statusbar widget.

You don't need to use Granite 9 (and shouldn't yet!). This feature is available since Granite 7.7.0
