Details:

When we paste text and mouse support is enabled, we should detect that text is
being pasted and skip parsing screen escape codes.

Should stop various issues if you accidentally paste binary file into screen.

Simple reproducer:
echo "^Ac" |xclip -i
(Don't forget to Ctrl+V Ctrl+A to type "^A" in.)
