I know about lmvtt, for T1 encoding which is a "variable" variant of lmodern 
mono font
for traditional TeX engine, but this has to be requested by specific option,

also Michael Sharpe's newtxtt has such an option (and I use such a "variable 
space" 
mono font extensively in a package doc)

Perhaps Latin Modern Mono has it in the font, and luaotfload intercepts this so 
that
one does not see the phenomenon in the plain LuaTeX example,

Anyway, this will now break all XeLaTeX documents with verbatim parts, and 
default fonts, since the LaTeX 2017/01/01 recently uploaded to CTAN.

Arguably most XeLaTeX users will have set-up their own choice of fonts in
the document, thus the impact may not be that big "in the wild".

Best,

Jean-François
