Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/1980

The "aligned" table mode is the easiest / most readable mode in the raw markdown files.
However, tables containing emojis are pretty difficult to align manually, and the vscode extensions such as https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TakumiI.markdowntable which usually automatically aligns table columns also fails handling these tables with emojis properly.

The easiest way for users would be for markdownlint to immediately update table alignments according to the mode configured for MD060.
