This change detects OSC sequences and ignores them. This is what's
normally expected and avoids strange outputs.

Starting with version 4, the fish shell has started sending out OSC
sequences by default, which looks pretty bad on term. This change avoids
this particular problem.

This is PATCH 1/3, because I'd like to propose making it possible to
handle OSC sequences in term in follow-up changes. Emacs already has
handlers for OSC sequences in ansi-osc, why not make use of them?
