This reverts the most recent big changes to `std.Progress` changing the strategy for printing. Before the changes, it would leave the cursor after the progress line, having better behavior when a stray print happened, and supporting sub-process progress without any coordination. After the changes, the cursor was left at the beginning of the line, making any prints print garbage and often interfering with stack traces or other debug information. This commit reverts to before the changes. Revert "std: Use more common escape sequences in Progress" This reverts commit 8ebb18d9da0bfbe6a974636fd36e3391d1de253b. Revert "Handle some weird edge cases of Win32 API" This reverts commit b0724a350f07c5e2e8fab572951ffaaa92860b2c. Revert "Fix many thinkos" This reverts commit b5a50a26ebac6a08dacf79f5d1db9bdd94ba33a5. Revert "Fix Progress printing on Windows systems" This reverts commit 3010bfb08af0b47d801d492e4f2e21a988e8399a. Revert "std: Better handling of line-wrapping in Progress" This reverts commit 4fc2e92876d8aafd087a5f0bdb6ea7a54f195704.

License
The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
