when defining a custom runtime, it might be useful to define a custom
prompter - for instance when you are not relying on the terminal and
want a GUI prompter instead
This commit updates permission prompt to add a link
to the documentation for particular flag.
Additionally the box drawings around the prompt have been slightly
altered for better visibility.

1. Generally we should prefer to use the `log` crate.
2. I very often accidentally commit `eprintln`s.
When we should use `println` or `eprintln`, it's not too bad to be a bit
more verbose and ignore the lint rule.
The permission prompt doesn't wait for quiescent input, so someone
pasting a large text file into the console may end up losing the prompt.
We enforce a minimum human delay and wait for a 100ms quiescent period
before we write and accept prompt input to avoid this problem.
This does require adding a human delay in all prompt tests, but that's
pretty straightforward. I rewrote the locked stdout/stderr test while I
was in here.
If we strip out unprintable chars, we don't see the full filename being
requested by permission prompts. Instead, we highlight and escape them
to make them visible.
Harden the code that does permission checks to protect against
re-opening of stdin.
Code that runs FFI is vulnerable to an attack where fd 0 is closed
during a permission check and re-opened with a file that contains a
positive response (ie: `y` or `A`). While FFI code is dangerous in
general, we can make it more difficult for FFI-enabled code to bypass
additional permission checks.
- Checks to see if the underlying file for stdin has changed from the
start to the end of the permission check (detects races)
- Checks to see if the message is excessively long (lowering the window
for races)
- Checks to see if stdin and stderr are still terminals at the end of
the function (making races more difficult)
1. Rewrites the tests to be more back and forth rather than getting the
output all at once (which I believe was causing the hangs on linux and
maybe mac)
2. Runs the pty tests on the linux ci.
3. Fixes a bunch of tests that were just wrong.
4. Adds timeouts on the pty tests.
This commit adds new "A" option to the interactive permission prompt, that will
allow all subsequent permissions for given group (domain). Ie. when querying for
permissions to access eg. env variables responding with "A" will allow access
to all environmental variables.
This works for all permission domains and should make permission prompts
more ergonomic for users.
This commit refactors several things in "runtime/permissions" module:
- splits it into "mod.rs" and "prompter.rs"
- adds "PermissionPrompter" trait with two implementations:
* "TtyPrompter"
* "TestPrompter"
- adds "before" and "after" prompt callback which can be used to hide
progress bar in the CLI (to be done in a follow up)
- "permissions_prompt" API returns "PromptResponse" enum, instead
of a boolean; this allows to add "allow all"/"deny all" functionality
for the prompt
