Wez Furlong 98f35bbf24 bidi: tag Line with bidi mode
This commit refines bidi property handling:

* experimental_bidi has been split into two new configuration settings;
  `bidi_enabled` (which controls whether the terminal performs implicit
  bidi processing) and `bidi_direction` which specifies the base
  direction and whether auto detection is enabled.
* The `Line` type can now store those bidi properties (they are actually
  split across 3 bits representing enabled, auto-detection and
  direction)
* The terminal now has a concept of active bidi properties and default
  bidi properties
* The default properties are pulled from the wezterm configuration
* active bidi properties are potentially set via escape sequences,
  BDSM (which sets bidi_enabled) and SCP (which sets bidi_direction).
  We don't support the 2501 temporary dec private mode suggested by
  the BIDI recommendation doc at this time.
* When creating new `Line`'s or clearing from the start of a `Line`, the
  effective bidi properties are computed (from the active props,
  falling back to default propr) and applied to the `Line`.
* When rendering the line, we now look at its bidi properties instead
  of just the global config.

The default bidi properties are `bidi_enabled: false` and
`bidi_direction: LeftToRight` which corresponds to the typical
bidi-unaware mode of most terminals.

It is possible to live reload the config to change the effective
defaults, but note that they apply, by design, to new lines being
processed through the terminal.  That means existing output is
left unaffected by a config reload, but subsequently printed lines
will respect it.  Pressing CTRL-L or otherwise contriving to have
the running application refresh its display should cause the
refreshed display to update and apply the new bidi mode.

Terminal Wizardry

This is a rust crate that provides a number of support functions for applications interested in either displaying data to a terminal or in building a terminal emulator.

It is currently in active development and subject to fairly wild sweeping changes.

Included functionality:

  • Surface models a terminal display and its component Cells
  • Terminal attributes are aware of modern features such as True Color, Hyperlinks and will also support sixel and iterm style terminal graphics display.
  • Surfaces include a log of Changes and an API for consuming and applying deltas. This is a powerful building block for synchronizing screen instances.
  • Escape sequence parser decodes inscrutable escape sequences and gives them semantic meaning, making the code that uses them clearer. The decoded escapes can be re-encoded, allowing applications to start with the semantic meaning and emit the appropriate escape sequence without embedding obscure binary bytes.
  • Capabilities allows probing for terminal capabilities that may not be included in the system terminfo database, and overriding them in an embedding application.
  • Terminal trait provides an abstraction over unix style ttys and Windows style console APIs. Changes from Surface can be rendered to Terminals. Terminals allow decoding mouse and keyboard inputs in both blocking or non-blocking mode.
  • Widget trait allows composition of UI elements at a higher level.
  • LineEditor implements shell-like line editing functionality.

Windows Support

Termwiz understands how to work with both the legacy console APIs and the new PTY and virtual terminal features available in Windows 10, allowing for true color terminal applications on Windows 10.
