x/crypto/ssh/terminal: cannot handle xterm based terminals on Windows

[frederich]

At work, I use a combination of Windows + Cygwin/MSYS2 to get my job done. Both Cygwin and MSYS2 using a mintty which is a xterm-256color terminal. My preferred backup tool on this setup is restic. Restic use x/crypto/ssh/terminal for password authentication. This works fine with a standard Dos Box, but not with my bash (Posix) setup see restic issue #330.

So I've changed the terminal code to use the util_linux.go version, but syscall.Termios is not defined.

it seems that the #13104 was solved, will there be an update?
