Michael Grant 6933bc417c tty: drop WT_SESSION-based Windows Terminal detection
nicm is opposed to identifying a terminal via an environment variable, so
remove the WindowsTerminal tty_default_features() entry and the
WT_SESSION check in tty_term_create() entirely, pending some other
accepted identification mechanism for Windows Terminal (it cannot be
identified via the existing XTVERSION path at all - see the previous
commit's now-removed comment for why).

This leaves WezTerm and ghostty's margins grants in place - both are
identified via the existing, already-accepted XTVERSION mechanism, with
DECSLRM support confirmed directly in their own source, independent of
this change.

regress/tty-margins-wt-session.sh tested only the removed mechanism and
is replaced by regress/tty-margins-scrollbar.sh, which checks the same
underlying scrollbar/margins scroll-decision mechanism (still real, and
still what WezTerm's and ghostty's table entries rely on) via the
generic terminal-features option instead of simulating any one
terminal's identification handshake.

Welcome to tmux!

tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals to be created,
accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached from a
screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached.

This release runs on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, macOS and Solaris.

* Dependencies

tmux depends on libevent 2.x, available from:

	https://github.com/libevent/libevent/releases/latest

It also depends on ncurses, available from:

	https://invisible-mirror.net/archives/ncurses/

To build tmux, a C compiler (for example gcc or clang), make, pkg-config and a
suitable yacc (yacc or bison) are needed.

* Installation

To build and install tmux from a release tarball, use:

	$ ./configure && make
	$ sudo make install

tmux can use the utempter library to update utmp(5), if it is installed - run
configure with --enable-utempter to enable this.

To get and build the latest from version control - note that this requires
autoconf, automake and pkg-config:

	$ git clone https://github.com/tmux/tmux.git
	$ cd tmux
	$ sh autogen.sh
	$ ./configure && make
	$ sudo make install

* Contributing

Bug reports, feature suggestions and especially code contributions are most
welcome. Please send by email to:

	tmux-users@googlegroups.com

Or open a GitHub issue or pull request.

* Documentation

For documentation on using tmux, see the tmux.1 manpage. View it from the
source tree with:

	$ nroff -mdoc tmux.1|less

A small example configuration is in example_tmux.conf.

Other documentation is available in the wiki:

	https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki

	https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/FAQ

A bash(1) completion file is at:

	https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/blob/main/completions/tmux

For debugging, run tmux with -v and -vv to generate server and client log files
in the current directory.
