Dragging/maximizing the console wallet on windows causes it to crash

[stringhandler]

To reproduce:

Open console wallet on windows.

Maximize it, then drag it to a new location.

Expected: maximizing and dragging works.

Actual: console wallet closes, I assume a panic.

NOTE: seems to happen on the second or third resize that happens

Performing a high level investigation showed that different results are obtained when using Windows Console Host or Windows Termimal as the default terminal application, or wether Windows 10 or Windows 11 are used.

tldr; For the current Console Wallet application, running on Windows 10 and using Windows Console Host is a bad combination.

• Using Windows Console Host as the defaiult terminal application:
  • Windows 10 (22H2)
    • Console Wallet crashes on the first maximize - drag or maximize - reset attempt
  • Windows 11 (24H2)
    • Console Wallet never crashes on any first maximize - drag or maximize - reset attempt
• Using Windows Terminal as the defaiult terminal application:
  • Windows 10 (22H2)
    • Console Wallet never crashes on any first maximize - drag or maximize - reset attempt
  • Windows 11 (24H2)
    • Console Wallet never crashes on any first maximize - drag or maximize - reset attempt

tldr; The backend crossterm process dies with maximize -> reset. This also holds for the latest release crossterm = { version = "0.28.1" }
