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 commit8ebb18d9da. Revert "Handle some weird edge cases of Win32 API" This reverts commitb0724a350f. Revert "Fix many thinkos" This reverts commitb5a50a26eb. Revert "Fix Progress printing on Windows systems" This reverts commit3010bfb08a. Revert "std: Better handling of line-wrapping in Progress" This reverts commit4fc2e92876.

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.
