This issue is the flow control and event batching part of #74620

Right now web and remote has problems when the terminal produces a lot of data, we need a flow control mechanism to avoid node-pty and its process from getting too far ahead of xterm.js. Event batching will help this by reducing the overall number of messages in favor of larger messages containing multiple data events.

Left to do:

  • Verify the numbers work well in Codespaces
  • Switch setting default to true (after verifying)

I was thinking about not having a setting but since it's here we can keep it for at least a month just in case there's an issue with it.
