Screen claude/styled-placeholder

The faint placeholder of the empty box of a new process. Each line keeps the SGR escape codes of capture-pane -e. A reader must remove the escape codes and each faint (SGR 2) character before it reads the box. On the raw bytes, the classifier of tg-bridge gives NO_BOX, because an escape code comes before the mark. `tests/test_sessions.py::test_a_faint_suggestion_reads_as_an_empty_box` asserts an empty box after the faint text is removed. No tg-bridge test asserts the state of this screen. The expected state is the value that the classifier of tg-bridge gives at commit 1997190. It is not a test assertion.
