normally, since SciTECO is not a library, this is not strictly
necessary since every library should use proper name prefixes
or namespaces for all global declarations to avoid name clashes.
However
* you cannot always rely on that
* Scintilla does violate the practice of using prefixes or namespaces.
The public APIs are OK, but it does define global functions/methods,
e.g. for "Document" that clashed with SciTECO's "TECODocument" class at
link-time.
Scintilla can put its definitions in a namespace, but this feature
cannot be easily enabled without patching Scintilla.
* a "SciTECO" namespace will be necessary if "SciTECO" is ever to be
turned into a library. Even if this library will have only a C-linkage
API, it must ensure it doesn't clutter the global namespace.
So the old "TECODocument" class was renamed back to "Document"
(SciTECO::Document).

interface object definition
* they still define their own classes (e.g. InterfaceNCurses),
InterfaceCurrent is a typedef

* Scintilla is now initialized from main() using Interface::main()
* Scintilla initialization depends on initialization of objects in the
global namespace (otherwise the Lexer catalogue may not be filled
properly and lexing may not work). Lexer modules were initialized
after SciTECO interface initialization
* merged Scintilla initialization (Interface::main()) with interface
option parsing

this is often because of a missing "config.h" include,
but puzzles me every time...

* CTRL/C will be a command so it is important to be able to type it directly
* aborting character processing is important because it allows aborting infinite loops
* since the loop interruption currently relies on SIGINT handling, there is only limited
support for XCurses and GTK - CTRL/C has to be typed in the terminal window.
later support for input queue polling might be added
