byte_to_symbol was broken because it didn't iterate by byte, it
iterated by rust-char, which is a codepoint.
So it failed for everything outside of ascii and, because of a
mistaken bound, ascii chars from 0x21 to 0x2F ("!" to "/" - all the punctuation).
char_to_symbol will print printable codepoints as-is and
others escaped. This is okay - something like `decoded from: +` or
`decoded from: ö` is entirely understandable, there is no need to tell
you that "ö" is \xc3\xb6.
This reverts commit 423e5f6c03.
See the changelog additions for user-visible changes.
Since we enable/disable terminal protocols whenever we pass terminal ownership,
tests can no longer run in parallel on the same terminal.
For the same reason, readline shortcuts in the gdb REPL will not work anymore.
As a remedy, use gdbserver, or lobby for CSI u support in libreadline.
Add sleep to some tests, otherwise they fall (both in CI and locally).
There are two weird failures on FreeBSD remaining, disable them for now

Design and implementation borrows heavily from Kakoune.
In future, we should try to implement more of the kitty progressive
enhancements.
Closes#10359
This would misname `\e\x7F` as "backspace":
bind -k backspace 'do something'
bind \e\x7F 'do something'
because it would check if there was any key *in there*.
This was probably meant for continuous mode, but it simply doesn't
work right. It's preferable to not give a key when one would work over
giving one when it's not correct.
This used to print all codepoints outside of the ASCII range (i.e.
above 0x80) in \uXXXX or \UYYYYYYYY notation.
That's quite awkward, considering that this is about keys that are
being pressed, and many keyboards have actual symbols for these on
them - I have an "ö" key, so I would like to use `bind ö` and not
`bind \u00F6`. So we go by iswgraph.
On a slightly different note, `\e` was written as `\c[ (or \e)`. I do
not believe anyone really uses `\c[` (the `[` would need to
be escaped!), and it's confusing and unnecessary to even mention that.
This translated ctrl-k to "\v", which is a "vertical tab", and ctrl-l
to "\f" and ctrl-g to "\a".
There is no "vertical tab" or "alarm" or "\f" *key*, so these
shouldn't be translated. Just drop these and call them `\ck` and such.
(vertical tab specifically is utterly useless and I would be okay with
dropping it entirely, I have never seen it used anywhere)
* fish_key_reader: Simplify default output
It now only prints the bind statement. Timing information and such is
relegated to a separate "verbose" mode.
* Adjust fish_key_reader docs
* Adjust tests
