Test nyan and progress reporters broken since 8.1.0

Prerequisites

• Checked that your issue hasn't already been filed by cross-referencing issues with the faq label
• Checked next-gen ES issues and syntax problems by using the same environment and/or transpiler configuration without Mocha to ensure it isn't just a feature that actually isn't supported in the environment in question or a bug in your code.
• 'Smoke tested' the code to be tested by running it outside the real test suite to get a better sense of whether the problem is in the code under test, your usage of Mocha, or Mocha itself
• Ensured that there is no discrepancy between the locally and globally installed versions of Mocha. You can find them with: node node_modules/.bin/mocha --version(Local) and mocha --version(Global). We recommend that you not install Mocha globally.

Description

Running tests in the terminal (bash) with the nyan and progress reporters are broken, the output is a mess.

Steps to Reproduce

Run npx mocha -R nyan test.js or npx mocha -R progress test.js with the following file:

const assert = require('assert');

describe('Bug test', () => {

	for(let i = 0; i < 200; i++) {
		it('Should do something', () => assert(true));
	}

});

Expected behavior: [What you expect to happen]
The nyan cat or the progress bar shouldn't exceed terminal width.

Actual behavior: [What actually happens]

It breakes awfully, by exceeding the terminal width and generating unexpected line breaks.

Reproduces how often: [What percentage of the time does it reproduce?]
100%
