//! Local terminal bridge: spawn a subprocess under a correctly-sized
//! pseudo-terminal and pump explicit DSL pipes through its master side.
//!
//! This is what makes fullscreen apps work through the proxy. A byte
//! pump alone cannot carry terminal dimensions: the inner `ssh` sizes
//! its remote pty from its *local* stdin tty, and pipes have no size
//! (0x0), so without a local pty every remote fullscreen app lays out
//! for a nonexistent screen. Spawning under a local pty sized from the
//! outer session — and resizing it live as outer window-change requests
//! arrive — closes the loop: the kernel SIGWINCHes the child, which
//! forwards the new size to the remote end itself.
//!
//! Implemented on `portable-pty` (the same substrate term-wm uses), so
//! Unix PTY and Windows ConPTY share one code path — no per-platform
//! branches here. Environment is inherited from the host process, layered
//! with the script environment like `RUN`: block-scoped `ENV` (such as a
//! session's `SSH_*` relay) reaches the child and reverts at scope exit.
//! The working directory comes from the script.
