cli: Disable XON/XOFF in the tty
- CLI history forward-search is bound to ^S which is common, but that is also the tty's default control byte to pause output. So we disable XON/XOFF in the tty so that we can use ^S. Change-Id: I61717c77a11733d64eed7f8119677e7cd2e20029 Signed-off-by: Chris Luke <chrisy@flirble.org>
