TerminalUI::suspend() is responsible for undoing all Kakoune's modifications to
the terminal state, actually suspending the process, then re-applying all the
modifications after Kakoune wakes back up.
Previously, the "undo" and "reapply" steps for termios settings were both after
the suspend point, so on some platforms they were incorrect when the user
arrived back at the shell prompt.
Now, the termios "undo" step is back before the suspend point, and the undo and
reapply steps should be in exactly reversed order.
Fixes#3488.
In terminals that support it, this sequence causes the terminal to not redraw
*its* output until the application has finished, reducing redraw flickering.
The sequence is defined in:
https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/-/wikis/synchronized-updates-spec
...and is apparently also supported by kitty and libVTE.
Fixes#3482.
insert blank seems to behave differently between terminals and would
be less efficient because it still has to shift all following characters
(that we will overwrite anyway).
Fixes#3437
Diff against known state and insert/erase relevant lines.
Erase everything first to avoid insertion invalidating lines that
get out of the terminal at bottom.
This should reduce flicker, by avoiding transient states where
info/menu windows are not displayed, and paves the way for proper
diffing of the screen.
If the session wasn't valid anymore by the time the linter finishes,
writing to "$dir"/fifo would hang forever leaving temporary files in
/tmp/kak-lint.XXX and the process alive. This commit fixes that by
not writing to the fifo if the session was not valid.

Log error to debug buffer and Change the 'waiting for shell' face
to 'Error'.
Update the 'waiting for shell' message when the shell has exited
but Kakoune is still waiting on stdin/stdout/stderr to be closed.
Those fifos are accessible during %sh{...} blocks, the command fifo
executes commands written to it once the write end side is closed
(multiple open/write/close sequences are supported), the response
fifo is a simple helper fifo available to write response back to
the shell process
An example use of this feature is to request some list options
content from without being limited by the environment size:
```
%sh{
echo "echo -to-file $kak_response_fifo -quoting shell -- %opt{some_list}" > $kak_command_fifo
eval "set -- $(cat $kak_response_fifo)"
}
```
Gentoo has a wiki page documenting Kakoune installation. The method given here ("emerge kakoune") will not work on a default Gentoo installation, as Kakoune is currently in the Testing branch rather than in the Stable branch. A link to the documentation explaining how to install Kakoune on Gentoo seems pertinent.
