To define border characters, you declare C<$PICTURE> package variable in your
border style class, using a specific ASCII art as shown in the Synopsis. You
then modify the border characters (the lines, not the spaces and the dots)
according to your actual style. This is a convenient way to define border styles
instead of declaring the characters specifically using a hash. Note that empty
border characters are not supported by this role.

For more complex border styles, you define C<@PICTURES> instead, with each
element being a hash:

 # this style is single bold line for header rows, single line for data rows.
 our @PICTURES = (
     {
         # imagine every line is a header-row separator line (theoretically, the
         # top and bottom lines won't ever be used as separator though)
         for_header_data_separator => 1,
         picture => <<'_',
