n_tty: Reset lnext if canonical mode changes
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
lnext escapes the next input character as a literal, and must
be reset when canonical mode changes (to avoid misinterpreting
a special character as a literal if canonical mode is changed
back again).

lnext is specifically not reset on a buffer flush so as to avoid
misinterpreting the next input character as a special character.
