term+libc: batched write rendering - one tile render per write(), 2.3x lines
sys_write sets wBatch; render_cursor_tile - the single choke point all
of term_putc's visible mutations pass through - then marks a dirty
span (per LINE-SLOT, so spans survive scroll rotation for free)
instead of rendering. term_write_end renders every dirty tile exactly
once, then the cursor. Scrolls stay immediate (blank rebuild is cheap
and artifact-free); file-bound writes flush for free.
The enabler is in libc: puts() was a SYS_PUTC trap PER CHARACTER, so
almost no console output ever went through sys_write. It now issues
one SYS_WRITE for the whole string - one trap, one batch, and every
line-printer (echo, irc, the shell) gets the batched path.
Measured: 37-char write = 128k cycles (3.5k/char) vs ~8k/char down
the per-char trap path. Full demo passes; GIF regenerated.
