If `?' does something useful, it must be bound to some command
(te-escape-help) in some map (terminal-escape-map).  So instead of a
literal `?' in the prompt, you should look it up:

(format "...%s..."
        ...
        (substitute-command-keys "\\<terminal-escape-map>\\[te-escape-help]")
        ...)
