/**
 * xterm.js based terminal output for the execution dialog.
 *
 * the xterm.js methods for write(), reset() and clear() appear to be async,
 * but they do not return a Promise and instead use a callback. When calling
 * these methods in quick succession, the output can get garbled due to race
 * conditions.
 *
 * To avoid this, this class uses Mutex around those methods to ensure that
 * only one write OR reset is executed at a time, is completed, and the calls
 * occour in sequential order.
