[PATCH] Better subshell prompt handling

Hello,

I am posting this patch to the list since I'd like to hear your opinions 
on it. The patch is not trivial.

As part of its dialog loop MC watches certain file descriptors and 
invokes callback functions if there is data pending on those descriptors. 
This mechanism is employed to retrieve the subshell prompt. At startup
MC install a callback for data coming from the pseudo terminal device to 
which the subshell is attached. Any data coming from that device while 
the callback is active is considered part of the prompt. While in most 
cases this is true there are same situations in which data is coming but
it is not the prompt - consider a SIGWINCH being sent to the pseudo 
terminal device.

After looking the code for a while I came to the conclusion that the 
current setup is not as good as it could be. This patch is an attempt to 
simplify/fix/improve the prompt handling a bit. It does several things:

* move subshell prompt retrieval from the dialog loop to the subshell 
(feed_subshell). most of the code dealing with the prompt is in
subshell.c and it is not visible to other modules.

* split the prompt retrieval from displaying of the prompt

* keep two prompts - the raw prompt that is to be displayed when 
the panels are off and the stripped prompt which is displayed in the
command prompt widget. now one can have a colored prompt in the subshell
for example.

* some smaller fixes including a fix for:

    http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc-devel/2004-November/msg00031.htmland

* code simplification (IMHO)

If this patch is accepted, either as is or with fixes suggested by anyone 
on the list I, I am going to commit some patches which depend on that one.

Thanks!

Pavel "The Prick" Tsekov
