[PATCH v1 0/2] Improve interactive shell output gathering

[jspewock@iol.unh.edu]

From: Jeremy Spewock <jspewock@iol.unh.edu>

When the interactive shell was originally added, the gathering of output
was implented in a way that was trying to be flexible enough to gather
output until a given string was found anywhere in the output. It has
been found more recently that this greater flexibility provides less
guarantees when writing tools that implement the shell and ultimately
can lead to unexpected behaviour. This is especially true when sending
multi-line commands into the shell which is desirable in some cases.

To account for this, the prompt will strictly be expected at the end of
a line from the output. There were also some quality of life changes
made to this system such as better wrapping of errors to privde some
more useful output.
