feat(terminal): Add ratatui::init() and restore() methods (#1289)
These are simple opinionated methods for creating a terminal that is
useful to use in most apps. The new init method creates a crossterm
backend writing to stdout, enables raw mode, enters the alternate
screen, and sets a panic handler that restores the terminal on panic.
A minimal hello world now looks a bit like:
```rust
use ratatui::{
crossterm::event::{self, Event},
text::Text,
Frame,
};
fn main() {
let mut terminal = ratatui::init();
loop {
terminal
.draw(|frame: &mut Frame| frame.render_widget(Text::raw("Hello World!"), frame.area()))
.expect("Failed to draw");
if matches!(event::read().expect("failed to read event"), Event::Key(_)) {
break;
}
}
ratatui::restore();
}
```
A type alias `DefaultTerminal` is added to represent this terminal
type and to simplify any cases where applications need to pass this
terminal around. It is equivalent to:
`Terminal<CrosstermBackend<Stdout>>`
We also added `ratatui::try_init()` and `try_restore()`, for situations
where you might want to handle initialization errors yourself instead
of letting the panic handler fire and cleanup. Simple Apps should
prefer the `init` and `restore` functions over these functions.
Corresponding functions to allow passing a `TerminalOptions` with
a `Viewport` (e.g. inline, fixed) are also available
(`init_with_options`,
and `try_init_with_options`).
The existing code to create a backend and terminal will remain and
is not deprecated by this approach. This just provides a simple one
line initialization using the common options.
