Johannes Altmanninger e697add5b5 Feature flag to prevent executing off buffered keys
If I run "sleep 3", type a command and hit enter, then there is no
obvious way to cancel or edit the imminent command other than ctrl-c
but that also cancels sleep, and doesn't allow editing. (ctrl-z sort
of works, but also doesn't allow editing).

Let's try to limit ourselves to inserting the buffered command
(translating enter to a newline), and only execute once the user
actually presses enter after the previous command is done.
Hide it behind a new feature flag for now.

By making things less scary, this might be more user-friendly, at
the risk of breaking expectations in some cases.

This also fixes a class of security issues where a command like
`cat malicious-file.txt` might output escape sequences, causing
the terminal to echo back a malicious command; such files can still
insert into the command line but at least not execute it directly.
(Since it's only fixed partially I'm not really sure if the security
issue is a good enough motivation for this particular change.)

Note that bracketed paste probably has similar motivation as this feature.
