Problem:  When 'fillchars' is set without a "vert" item, the vertical
          separator is drawn with a space instead of the documented
          default '|' (habamax).
Solution: Use '|' as the internal default for "vert" in
          set_chars_option().  Add Test_fillchars_vert_default() in
          test_display.vim, which sets a colored VertSplit group and
          'fillchars' to "trunc:<", and checks the separator column
          against dumps/Test_display_fillchars_vert.dump.

fixes: #21322
