Dispatch more C0 control characters from the VT state machine (micros…
…oft#4171) This commit moves the handling of the `BEL`, `BS`, `TAB`, and `CR` controls characters into the state machine (when in VT mode), instead of forwarding them on to the default string writer, which would otherwise have to parse them out all over again. This doesn't cover all the control characters, but `ESC`, `SUB`, and `CAN` are already an integral part of the `StateMachine` itself; `NUL` is filtered out by the `OutputStateMachineEngine`; and `LF`, `FF`, and `VT` are due to be implemented as part of PR microsoft#3271. Once all of these controls are handled at the state machine level, we can strip out all the VT-specific code from the `WriteCharsLegacy` function, which should simplify it considerably. This would also let us simplify the `Terminal::_WriteBuffer` implementation, and the planned replacement stream writer for issue microsoft#780. On the conhost side, the implementation is handled as follows: * The `BS` control is dispatched to the existing `CursorBackward` method, with a distance of 1. * The `TAB` control is dispatched to the existing `ForwardTab` method, with a tab count of 1. * The `CR` control required a new dispatch method, but the implementation was a simple call to the new `_CursorMovePosition` method from PR microsoft#3628. * The `BEL` control also required a new dispatch method, as well as an additional private API in the `ConGetSet` interface. But that's mostly boilerplate code - ultimately it just calls the `SendNotifyBeep` method. On the Windows Terminal side, not all dispatch methods are implemented. * There is an existing `CursorBackward` implementation, so `BS` works OK. * There isn't a `ForwardTab` implementation, but `TAB` isn't currently required by the conpty protocol. * I had to implement the `CarriageReturn` dispatch method, but that was a simple call to `Terminal::SetCursorPosition`. * The `WarningBell` method I've left unimplemented, because that functionality wasn't previously supported anyway, and there's an existing issue for that (microsoft#4046). ## Validation Steps Performed I've added a state machine test to confirm that the updated control characters are now forwarded to the appropriate dispatch handlers. But since the actual implementation is mostly relying on existing functionality, I'm assuming that code is already adequately tested elsewhere. That said, I have also run various manual tests of my own, and confirmed that everything still worked as well as before.
