This PR activates the REPL history and adds several Ctrl & Alt commands.
History
Ctrl & Alt commands
This makes editing very pleasant on Mac and Linux as the terminals are often configured to generate these commands when typing common keystrokes (e.g., Cmd-Backspace generates Ctrl-U).
Note that I edited Unix.zig to set
new_termios.lflag.ISIGandnew_termios.lflag.IEXTENto false to ensure that the REPL receives key combos like Ctrl-Y (or else this suspends the process).Implemented mostly by antigravity. I reviewed all the code.
