Research direction

Reproduce the issue on Windows 11 with PowerShell 7 using `lsd | %{ echo "$_ -------" }` and compare the inserted line breaks with the expected output. No file or test is named, so trace the Rust CLI's piped-output handling and add coverage for this PowerShell case. Done means each item is followed by the dashes without extra line breaks.
