On a tty, 1 pixel = 1 character (for the text area only, of course).
This is how all the pixel-related macros are defined on a tty, so if
you see any other behavior, that's a bug.  The mouse on a tty, if
supported, also works in character units.

In particular, posn-at-x-y on a tty assumes that its 2 arguments are
window-relative coordinates in character units.  I just tried that,
and it seems to do what I'd expect.
