BREAKING: Copy trait is removed from Event, you can keep it by removing the "bracked-paste" feature flag. However this flag might be standardized in the future. We removed the Copy from Event because the new Paste event, which contains a pasted string into the terminal, which is a non-copy string.

• Add ability to paste a string in into the terminal and fetch the pasted string via events (see Event::Paste and EnableBracketedPaste ).
• Add support for functional key codes from kitty keyboard protocol. Try out by PushKeyboardEnhancementFlags. This protocol allows for:
  • See: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/keyboard-protocol/#modifiers
  • Press, Repeat, Release event kinds.
  • SUPER, HYPER, META modifiers.
  • Media keycodes
  • Right/left SHIFT, Control, Alt, Super, Hyper, Meta
  • IsoLevel3Shift, IsoLevel5Shift
  • Capslock, scroll lock, numlock
  • Printscreen, pauze, menue, keyboard begin.
• Create SetStyle command to allow setting various styling in one command.
• Terminal Focus events (see Event::FocusGained and Event::FocusLost)

• Add DoubleUnderlined, Undercurled, Underdots the text, Underdotted, Underdashes, Underdashed attributes and allow coloring their foreground / background color.
• Fix windows unicode character parsing, this fixed various key combinations and support typing unicode characters.
• Consistency and better documentation on mouse cursor operations (BREAKING CHANGE).
  • MoveTo, MoveToColumn, MoveToRow are 0-based. (left top most cell is 0,0). Moving like this is absolute
  • MoveToNextLine, MoveToPreviousLine, MoveUp, MoveDown, MoveRight, MoveLeft are 1-based,. Moving like this is relative. Moving 1 left means moving 1 left. Moving 0 to the left is not possible, wikipedia states that most terminals will just default to 1.
• terminal::size returns error when previously it returned (0,0).
• Remove println from serialisation code.
• Fix mouse up for middle and right buttons.
