Wez Furlong 693a717db2 improve output parsing performance and throughput
I've been meaning to do this for a while; this commit moves
the escape sequence parsing into the thread that reads the
pty output which achieves two goals:

* Large escape sequences (eg: image protocols) that span multiple
  4k buffers can be processed without ping-ponging between the
  reader thread and the main gui thread
* That parsing can happen in the reader thread, keeping the gui
  thread more responsive.

These changes free up the CPU during intensive operations such
as timg video playback.

This is a slight layering violation, in that this processing
really belongs to local pane (or any pane that embeds Terminal),
rather than generically at the Mux layer, but it's not any
worse a violation than `advance_bytes` already was.

wezterm-term

This crate provides the core of the virtual terminal emulator implementation used by wezterm. The home for this crate is in the wezterm repo and development is tracked at https://github.com/wez/wezterm/.

It is full featured, providing terminal escape sequence parsing, keyboard and mouse input encoding, a model for the screen cells including scrollback, sixel and iTerm2 image support, OSC 8 Hyperlinks and a wide range of terminal cell attributes.

This crate does not provide any kind of gui, nor does it directly manage a PTY; you provide a std::io::Write implementation that could connect to a PTY, and supply bytes to the model via the advance_bytes method.

The entrypoint to the crate is the Terminal struct.
