## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR implements a pair of shims for `cmd` and `powershell`, so that their `cls` and `Clear-Host` functions will clear the entire terminal buffer (like they do in conhost), instead of just the viewport. With the conpty viewport and buffer being the same size, there's effectively no way to know if an application is calling these API's in this way with the intention of clearing the buffer or the viewport. We absolutely have to guess.
Each of these shims checks to see if the way that the API is being called exactly matches the way `cmd` or `powershell` would call these APIs. If it does, we manually write a `^[[3J` to the connected terminal, to get he Terminal to clear it's own scrollback.
~~_⚠️ If another application were trying to clear the **viewport** with an exactly similar API call, this would also cause the terminal scrollback to get cleared ⚠️_~~
* [x] Should these shims be restricted to when the process that's calling them is actually `cmd.exe` or `powershell.exe`? Can I even do this? I think we've done such a good job of isolating the client process information from the rest of the host code that I can't figure out how to do this.
- YES, this can be done, and I did it.
* [ ] **TODO**: _While I'm here_, should I have `DoSrvPrivateEraseAll` (the implementation for `^[[2J`, in `getset.cpp`) also manually trigger a EraseAll in the terminal in conpty mode?
## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes#3126
* [x] Actually closes#1305 too, which is really the same thing, but probably deserves a callout
* [x] I work here
* [x] Tests added/passed
* [n/a] Requires documentation to be updated
## Validation Steps Performed
* ran tests
* checked `cls` in the Terminal
* checked `Clear-Host` in the Terminal
* Checked running `powershell clear-host` from `cmd.exe`
## Summary of the Pull Request
Adds support for Italics, Blinking, Invisible, CrossedOut text, THROUGH CONPTY. This does **NOT** add support for those styles to conhost or the terminal.
We will store these "Extended Text Attributes" in a `TextAttribute`. When we go to render a line, we'll see if the state has changed from our previous state, and if so, we'll appropriately toggle that state with VT. Boldness has been moved from a `bool` to a single bit in these flags.
Technically, now that these are stored in the buffer, we only need to make changes to the renderers to be able to support them. That's not being done as a part of this PR however.

See also #2915 and #2916, which are some follow-up tasks from this fix. I thought them too risky for 20H1.

Adjusts the startup and shutdown behavior of most threads in the console host to alleviate race conditions that are either exacerbated or introduced by the VT PTY threads.
