KeyDecoder class
Turns raw terminal input bytes (read in raw mode) into KeyEvents.
The decoder is streaming: feed it each chunk from stdin with decode and it returns the events that completed in that chunk, buffering any partial escape sequence or partial UTF-8 character until the rest arrives. This keeps multi-byte input (arrow keys, accented characters pasted a chunk at a time) robust without the caller reasoning about byte boundaries.

ESC). Call when input ends. -
