ui/console-vc: report to the application instead of screen rendering

Terminal Device Status Report (DSR) [1] should be sent to an
application, not rendered to the screen. This patch fixes rendering of
terminal report, which appear only on the graphical screen of the
terminal (console "vc") and can be reproduced by the following
command:

     echo -en '\e[6n'; IFS='[;' read -sdR _ row col; echo $row:$col

Command requests cursor position and waits for terminal response, but
instead, the response is rendered to the graphical screen and never
sent to an application.

Why bother? Busybox shell (ash) in Alpine distribution requests cursor
position on each shell prompt (once <ENTER> is pressed), which makes a
prompt on a graphical screen corrupted with repeating Cursor Position
Report (CPR) [2]:

   [root@alpine ~]# \033[57;1R]

Which is very annoying and incorrect.
