//! Terminal-title output helpers for the TUI.
//!
//! This module owns the low-level OSC title write path and the sanitization
//! that happens immediately before we emit it. It is intentionally narrow:
//! callers decide when the title should change and whether an empty title means
//! "leave the old title alone" or "clear the title Codex last wrote".
//! This module does not attempt to read or restore the terminal's previous
//! title because that is not portable across terminals.
//!
//! Sanitization is necessary because title content is assembled from untrusted
//! text sources such as model output, thread names, project paths, and config.
//! Before we place that text inside an OSC sequence, we strip:
//! - control characters that could terminate or reshape the escape sequence
//! - bidi/invisible formatting codepoints that can visually reorder or hide
//! text (the same family of issues discussed in Trojan Source writeups)
//! - redundant whitespace that would make titles noisy or hard to scan
