term_out() can in turn call ldisc_send() which calls back to
from_backend() when local echo is enabled. This was giving rise to
crazy re-entrancy stuff and stack overflows. Instead from_backend()
deposits its data in a bufchain which term_out() empties the next
time it's called.

fiddle with the widths of characters in DBCS screen fonts, and (the
big one) one to enable a mode in which resizing the window locks the
terminal size and lets the font change, instead of vice versa. That
should shut up a few feature requests!

characters that failed the UTF-8 canonicality rules were being sent
to the session log twice. Sounds trivial, but I bet it'd have
confused anyone who turned on session logging precisely to track
down a canonicality bug :-)

mouse tracking is enabled. (This can be turned off if your app
really wants Shift+mouse, but it defaults to on for general
usefulness.)

by ceasing to listen on input channels if the corresponding output
channel isn't accepting data. Has had basic check-I-didn't-actually-
break-anything-too-badly testing, but hasn't been genuinely tested
in stress conditions (because concocting stress conditions is non-
trivial).

it out. A line was removed from the scrollback, cleared, and placed
at the bottom of the screen. Fine, except that the clearing process
assumed the line was the right length already, and thanks to lazy
resizing this wasn't necessarily the case. Segfaults and memory
corruption ensued.)

possible and we have a single unified means of trying to display any
Unicode code point. Instead of the various ad-hoc translation modes
we had before, we now have a single `codepage' option which allows
us to treat the incoming (and outgoing) text as any given character
set, and locally we map that to Unicode and back.

requires fix_cpos() to be called after it (otherwise cpos might point
to a line that isn't where you remember it being), and a mis-aimed
incpos() was causing forward selection dragging not to include the
char under the mouse. Both fixed.

configurable bell overload handling. Thanks to Robert de Bath for
galvanising me into doing this, but I've had to rip most of his code
out and redo it myself...

now to translate them into poor man's characters (+--+ and |). We also
have an option to disable this (and map line drawing characters to the
corresponding ASCII code as before). Thanks to Robert de Bath.

multiple switchable line disciplines, we now have a single unified
one which changes its behaviour based on option settings. Each
option setting can be suggested by the back end and/or the terminal
handler, and can be forcibly overridden by the configuration. Local
echo and local line editing are separate, independently switchable,
options.

character if we were wrapping, not whether we _will_ wrap next
character. Makes for saner behaviour with vertical-line cursor and
also when changing autowrap mode while on rightmost column. Does
entail small behavioural changes to backspace and destructive-
backspace when in rightmost column with Auto Wrap off, but I don't
think they should be catastrophic, or indeed that there's a well
defined Right Behaviour.
