///
/// This function only restores raw mode and the alternate screen. Any other
/// terminal modes (mouse capture, bracketed paste, etc.) must
/// be re-enabled by the caller after this function returns.
///
/// ## Errors
///
/// Returns an error if:
/// - Terminal mode changes fail
/// - The external editor fails to open or returns an error
