Dom
- `vscroll_indicator`. Show a scrollback indicator on the right.
Component
- `Maybe`: Display an component conditionnally based on a boolean.
- `Dropdown`: A dropdown select list.

|hbox| and |vbox| are similar. They are just the same component, but
drawing in a different direction.
This patchs factorize the layout logic. Goal is to reduce code size and
reuse it for the |gridbox| dom element.
Bug: https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI/issues/114
In the past, FTXUI switched from std::string to std::wstring to support
fullwidth characters. The reasons was that fullwidth characters can be
stored inside a single wchar_t.
Then FTXUI added support for combining characters. A single glygh
doesn't even fit a wchar_t. Instead, a glyph can be arbitrary large.
The usage of wstring doesn't really fit the new model and have several
drawbacks:
1. It doesn't simplify the implementation of FTXUI, because of combining
characters.
2. It reduces drawing performance by 2x.
3. It increase Screen's memory allocation by 2x.
This patch converts FTXUI to use std::string internally. It now exposes
std::string based API. The std::wstring API remains, but is now
deprecated.
Tests and examples haven't been update to show the breakage is limited.
They will be updated in a second set of patches.

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.
When switching from raw pointers toward shared_ptr, the destructor
wasn't updated correctly.
This patch:
- Fixes the issue.
- Add two regression tests.
- Use address sanitizer for the tests.

If we download the FTXUI source archive from the GitHub website, then the `.git` folder will be missing.
In such case, CMake configuration will fail:
> git found
> fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
> CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:21 (project):
> VERSION "0.6." format invalid.
This flag is used to find global functions defined without a previous
declaration. Usually it spots accidental globals, but in this case it
was just missing headers.
set as the parent directory and not the FTXUI project directory.
* Changed the working directory variable to ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}, so as to get the version of FTXUI and not that of parent project
The ESC key generates sequences that are prefix of others. For instance:
- ESC => [27]
- F1 => [27, 79, 8]
As a result, we can't generate the ESC event when receiving [27],
because it might be the start of the [27, 79, 8] sequence (or not).
Application usually applies a timeout to help detecting the ESC key.
This patch introduce a timeout. It is set to 50ms.
