When mouse events are enabled, it is not possible to select text in the
terminal and copy it somewhere else. This could be usefull for some
applications if they don't need to handle mouse events.
Add a function on the ScreenInteractive class to disable grabbing of
mouse events so that it is e.g. possible to select text in the user
interface. The function needs to be called on the screen object before
starting the application loop if such a behaviour is desired.
It can be used to give developers a better control on the loop. Users
can use it not to take full control of the thread, and poll FTXUI from
time to time as part of an external loop.
This resolves: https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI/issues/474
- Add support for SIGTSTP:

- Add support for task posting.
This allows folks to defer function execution, and execute it directly
below the main loop. The task are executed in a FIFO order.
* Reorganize ContainerBase
- Reduce Container overloads using default arguments
- Extract member function pointers to virtual functions
- Separate classes for Vertical, Horizontal and Tab containers
* Collect unpack from NodeDecorator subclasses
* Reduce redundant expansion for aliases
From CppCoreGuidelines:
Rule of Zero: C.20: If you can avoid defining default operations, do.
C.52: Use inheriting constructors to import constructors into a derived class that does not need further explicit initialization.
DRY forward and using declarations.
Miscellaneous:
Fix format.sh to output examples with normalised paths in sorted order.

I finally got access to a computer using the Microsoft's Windows OS.
That's the opportunity to find and mitigate all the problems
encountered. This patch:
1. Introduce an option and a C++ definition to enable fallback for
Microsoft's terminal emulators. This allows me to see/test the
Microsoft output from Linux. This also allows Windows users to remove
the fallback and target non Microsoft terminals on Windows if needed.
2. Microsoft's terminal suffer from a race condition bug when reporting
the cursor position:
https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/7583.
The mitigation is not to ask for the cursor position in fullscreen
mode where it isn't really needed and request it less often.
This fixes: https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI/issues/136
3. Microsoft's terminal do not handle properly hidding the cursor. Instead
the character under the cursor is hidden, which is a big problem. As
a result, we don't enable setting the cursor to the best position for
[input method editors](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_method),
It will be displayed at the bottom right corner.
See:
- https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/1203
- https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/3093
4. Microsoft's terminals do not provide a way to query if they support
colors. As a fallback, assume true colors is supported.
See issue:
- https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/1040
This mitigates:
- https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI/issues/135
5. The "cmd" on Windows do not properly report its dimension. Powershell
works correctly. As a fallback, use a 80x80 size instead of 0x0.
6. There are several dom elements and component displayed incorrectly,
because the font used is missing several unicode glyph. Use
alternatives or less detailled one as a fallback.
It allow you to create the two end of a pipe: A producer and consumer.
The producer can be moved into another thread.
Several producer can be created if necessary.
This will ease merging:
https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI/pull/11
Most CJK users use IME (input method) to type CJK characters. They need
the cursor to be at the correct location, not in the bottom right
corner.
This CL does:
* Move the cursor the focus() element.
* Hide the cursor (and show it at exit)
* Intercept SIGINT to guarantee proper cleanup all the time.
This should fix the second issue mentionned on:
