Neil 249a8e11bf test(terminal): pin the preedit overlay against already-committed cells
STA-3132 (arm A), STA-3170 and STA-3232 report a Korean preedit painted on
top of text already on screen. Builds v1.4.163-v1.4.166 cancel the pending
finalizer in compositionstart, so a committed syllable reaches onData one
syllable late and buffer.x is stale — the overlay lands on the cell the
flushed syllable is about to occupy.

Replays a recorded hardware trace rather than an authored one: the ordered
DOM event stream captured on Windows + MS Korean (wave5-r2 evidence, 64
events), echoing onData back as PTY output.

The load-bearing assertion is deliberately not the obvious one. Comparing
overlay style.left against cursorX is tautological — left is computed from
buffer.x. This counts committed syllables from the compositionend events
the IME fired, so the two sides are independently derived.

Discriminated by a historical re-add across seven real bundles, since the
owner is deletion-shaped: pristine beta287, v1.4.155 and v1.4.162 pass;
v1.4.163 fails; v1.4.163 with that single call removed passes; the byte
identical baseline restored fails again; head passes. Every failing arm
fails only this case — the ordinary negative stays green in all seven.

The negative asserts its own category rather than claiming it: zero
composition events, zero isComposing, zero keyCode 229, exactly 16 events,
paired against the Korean arm's 4 starts / 3 ends / 11 updates / 64 events.

Scope: cell indices, not pixels. happy-dom has no layout, so the recorded
8x16 cell metrics are supplied to the render service. This makes no claim
about pixels visually overlapping; that is affected-OS confirmation and
stays open. Covers the overlap arm only — STA-3132's auto-line-break arm
and STA-3232's half-line-capacity and a11y arms are untouched.
