/**
 * The inline scrollback engine.
 *
 * Unlike a full-screen alt-buffer UI, the dev TUI streams its transcript into
 * the terminal's *native* scrollback so the user keeps real scrolling, copy /
 * paste, and a persistent transcript after exit. Two regions are maintained:
 *
 * - **Committed scrollback** — finalized rows printed once and owned by the
 *   terminal thereafter (never repainted).
 * - **Live region** — the still-streaming rows plus the sticky footer, redrawn
 *   in place on every update.
 *
 * Redrawing moves the cursor to the top of the previous live region, clears to
 * the end of the screen, and reprints. {@link flush} additionally writes a run
 * of newly-finalized rows above the live region so they scroll away for good.
 *
 * Writes go through the terminal's original `write` captured at construction,
 * so the renderer's foreign-output capture (which monkeypatches
 * `process.stdout.write`) never mistakes the engine's own paint for agent log
 * output.
