Subject: Improve pty reading and renderer synchronization

The pty read thread now runs the parser and directly updates the
terminal in the same thread. This obviates the need for a channel which
sends every char read from the pty; this is a huge performance boon.

Synchronization between the updater and the renderer is now achieved
with a PriorityMutex. Previously, an atomic bool was (poorly) used to
request the lock on terminal. The PriorityMutex is dead simple to use,
and it _Just Works_.
