This patch allow warn to user if current line exceeds
display-fill-column-indicator-column.

When current line exceeds display-fill-column-indicator-column ...
                                           |
(print "......................................")
                                           |
... fill-column indicator face will change ^
temporarily to a noticeable face to warn the user that the current
column is getting too long.

I also wanted to do the same for indicator character but I couldn't find
a way to implement it.

(I hope this feature has been understood)
