Add support for OSC 22 escape sequence to allow changing mouse cursor shapes. While the escape sequence could help some users with the mouse UX in TUI applications using mouse mode, it could obscure common mouse mode indication which is the `Text` cursor. Thus OSC 22 is disabled by default and could be enabled with `terminal.osc22` configuration option. Fixes alacritty#7119.

I created an issue on kitty for support and Kovid ended up writing a pretty nice spec for this. It expands on the xterm implementation by adding a query for supported names, as well as a stack based approach if desired. Also fleshes out how it should work with other terminal features https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/blob/master/docs/pointer-shapes.rst |
