Previously, we'd use a 1MB buffer both to read the output from the
associated pty (blocking), and the same size buffer again to do the
non-blocking read on top of that.
For pathological cases (eg: cat 100MB+ files), we could build a
resulting `Vec<Action>` with over 1mm entries and it could take as much
as 100ms to apply those actions to the terminal model.
This meant that the output could stutter/lag and appear to be processed
more slowly.
This commit introduces a configuration value for the buffer size for the
second stage, and makes it 10KB in size. This helps to constrain the
size of the Action vec and keeps the incremental processing costs down,
while still managing the same throughput.
Taking further advantage of dynamic quad allocation, we can now
remove the multiple render passes in favor of allocating the quads
and painting them from back to front.
In turn, this means that we can reduce the amount of data that we
store in the vertex, which simplifies the shaders a bit, at the
expense of making the render code in rust a bit more complex.
However, we can take advantage of stretching runs of cells with
background colors in to a single quad.

This was added in 365a68dfb8 to free the
orca from its cage. With the recent dynamic quad allocation changes, we
don't need a distinct 4th pass any more and can simply layer a separate
quad on top of the glyph quad.
refs: #986
This removes the pre-allocated (at resize) number of quads
and replaces it with a dynamic mechanism that tracks how many
quads are needed for a frame and then will re-allocate and
re-render when there weren't enough.
We start with 1024 quads and try to allocate in multiples
of 1024 quads.
refs: #986
This commit removes the `Quads` struct which maintained pre-defined quad
indices for each of the cells, the background image and scrollbar thumb.
In its place, we now "dynamically" hand out quads to meet the needs of
what is being rendered. There are some efficiency gains here with
things like the selection (which can now be a single stretched quad,
rather than `n` quads in width).
This isn't a fully dynamic allocation scheme, as we still allocate the
current worst case number of quads when resizing.
A following commit will adjust that so that we allocate a ballpark and
then employ a mechanism similar to OutOfTextureSpace to grow and retry a
render pass when we need more quads.
Futhermore, this dynamic approach may allow reducing the amount of stuff
we have in the Vertex and "simply" render some quads before others so
that we don't have to have so many draw() passes to build up the
complete scene.

This isn't complete; many of the placement options are not supported,
and the status reporting is missing in a number of cases, including
querying/probing, and shared memory objects are not supported yet.
However, this commit is sufficient to allow the kitty-png.py script
(that was copied from
https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/graphics-protocol/#a-minimal-example)
to render a PNG in the terminal.
This implementation routes the basic image display via the same
code that we use for iterm2 and sixel protocols, but it isn't
sufficient to support the rest of the placement options allowed
by the spec.
Notably, we'll need to add the concept of image placements to
the data model maintained by the terminal state and find a way
to efficiently manage placements both by id and by a viewport
range.
The renderer will need to manage separate quads for placements
and order them by z-index, and adjust the render phases so that
images can appear in the correct plane.

This teaches termwiz to recognize and encode the APC
sequences used by the kitty image protocol.
This doesn't include support for animations, just the
transmit, placement and delete requests.
refs: #986
These were parsed but swallowed. This commit expands the transitions
to be able to track the APC start, data and end and then adds
an `apc_dispatch` method to allow capturing APC sequences.
APC sequences are used in the kitty image protocol.

In the case where the cells vec is shorter than the line width,
we need to ensure that we render the inverse video background
color if that mode is in effect.
refs: #133
Also fixes an issue where only the first frame schedule would
take effect! Surprised this didn't bubble up as a bug with
animated gifs already.

This commit hooks up DECRQM so that we can report that we implement
synchronized updates, and then refines the code that manages sending
data to the terminal model; the first cut at synchronized updates
was a bit simplistic, and now we make a point of "flushing" pending
actions when we start a sync point, and again as soon as we release
the sync point.
This smooths out the jaggies around the orca that I mentioned in
dcbbda7702
and while testing this, I realized that recent parser changes had
mangled processing bundled dec private mode sequences where multiple
modes were specified in the same overall escape sequence. I've
added the missing unit test case for this and made that work again.

This commit removes the intermediates parameter and collapses it
together with the parameters themselves.
This allows us to model DECSET (eg: `CSI ? 1 l`) correctly.
Previously this would get reported as:
```
params: [1],
intermediates: ['?'],
code: 'l'
```
but since the intermediates are logically things that precede the code,
the canonical interpretation of that would be as if we'd received
`CSI 1 ? l`.
AFAICT, DECSET isn't conforming to ECMA 48 when it comes to this
sequence.
That made things a bit of a headache in the CSI parser, so what we do
now is to treat intermediates as parameters so that it is much simpler
to reason about and match in the CSI parser; we now get:
```
params: ['?', 1],
code: 'l',
```

The original design of the vtparse crate was inspired by the vte
crate. There were some assumptions about the shape of CSI sequences
that were lossy and that is posing a problem when it comes to
implementing DECRQM.
This commit improves the situation by adjusting CsiParam to be capable
of capturing all of the possible parameters as well as intermediates.
This commit isn't done; I just need to push it to transfer it to another
machine.

This implementation doesn't include a timeout, but should be
recoverable via a SoftReset.
There's no query response either: I think I'm missing DECRQM
entirely at the moment.

This commit introduces a 4th draw pass for rendering sixel and
iterm images that are attached to cells.
Previously, a cell could container either text or an image from
the perspective of the renderer. If it had an image then the glyph
bitmap would be ignored in favor of the image.
However, that causes sixel behavior to diverge from other terminals
(https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/942) so we need to be render
both of these.
The simplest way to achieve this is to add a distinct set of texture
coordinates for the attached image and then add a draw pass to alpha
blend it over the glyph content.
The sixel/iterm image processing stage is also adjusted to preserve
the prior cell information and "simply" attach the image info to
the cell. Previously, the cell would be replaced with a blank cell
with the image attached.
The result of this is that the notcurses-demo intro section can
now render the orca "enveloped in the soft glow of glyphs" rather
than caged in a black box.
Note that there are some cases where the render turns blocky but
I suspect that that is due to some other misunderstanding between
wezterm and notcurses and that we'll root cause it as a follow up.
