That method is overwritten in both
`require('node:readline').Interface.prototype` and
`require('node:readline/promises').Interface.prototype`, and is very
much not useful outside of interacting with TTY, removing it from the
parent class could enable the use of `InterfaceConstructor` in other
contexts (such as interacting with files).

This commit fixes readline interface's question callback wrapping when
it is being called with `signal` option. Previous version completely
overwrites passed callback and throws "Maximum call stack size exceeded"
error.

Sometimes, it makes sense for a completer to change the existing
input, e.g. by adjusting the casing (imagine a completer that
corrects `Number.isNan` to `Number.IsNaN`, for example).
This commit allows that in the readline implemention.

Add a history event which is emitted when the history has
been changed. This enables persisting of the history in
some way but also to allows a listener to alter the
history. One use-case could be to prevent passwords from
ending up in the history.
A constructor option is also added to allow for setting
an initial history list when creating a Readline interface.

In some cases a question asked needs to be canceled. For instance
it might be desirable to cancel a question when a user presses
ctrl+c and triggers the SIGINT event.
Also an initial empty string was set for this.line since the
cursor methods fail if line is not initialized.
Added custom promisify support to the question method.

This adds support for error handling in readline.createInterface()
for cases where the input object is not supplied, the input stream
is invalid, or the underlying buffer emits an error.
Now, the 'error' emissions by the readline module are thrown but
in order to log those in the specific case of await for loops,
we still need to fix silent rejections (TODO added there) inside
async iterators for the thenables to work.

This will be a start to generalize all argument validation
errors. As currently we throw ARG/OPT, OUT_OF_RANGE, and other more
specific errors.
The OPT errors didn't bring much to the errors as it's just another
variant of ARG error which is sometimes more confusing (some of our code
used OPT errors to denote just argument validation errors presumably
because of similarity of OPT to 'option' and not 'options-object')
and they don't specify the name of the options object where the invalid
value is located. Much better approach would be to just specify path
to the invalid value in the name of the value as it is done in this PR
(i.e. 'options.format', 'options.publicKey.type' etc)
Also since this decreases a variety of errors we have it'd be easier to
reuse validation code across the codebase.

The array grouping function relies on the width of the characters.
It was not calculated correct so far, since it used the string
length instead.
This improves the unicode output by calculating the mono-spaced
font width (other fonts might differ).

1. This reduces the number of write operations used during tab
completion.
2. The tab completion calculated the string width using the length
of the string instead of using the actual width. That is fixed.
3. The key decoder is now capable of handling characters composed
out of two code points. That reduces the number of "keypress"
events that are emitted which again lowers the amount of writes
triggered.

1. Simplify the getStringWidth function used by Intl builds by removing
dead code (the options were unused) and by refactoring the logic.
2. Improve the getStringWidth unicode handling used by non-Intl builds.
The getStringWidth function returned the wrong width for multiple
inputs. It's now improved by supporting various zero width characters
and more full width characters.

Reaching the history end caused the last entry to be persistent.
That way there's no actualy feedback to the user that the history
end is reached. Instead, visualize the original input line and keep
the history index at the history end in case the user wants to go
back again.

This improves the current history search feature by adding substring
based history search similar to ZSH. In case the `UP` or `DOWN`
buttons are pressed after writing a few characters, the start string
up to the current cursor is used to search the history.
All other history features work exactly as they used to.
