Add `terminal` config section to control OSCs

Some environments demand certain OSC sequences to be disabled or
some escape sequence could require handling which is out of scope
of alacritty, but could be done by external script (OSC 777).

Added section for now just handles the `OSC 52` sequence and changes
its default to be `OnlyCopy`, which is handy for remote copy, but
`Paste` is redundant because normal `Paste` hotkey could be used as
well.

Fixes #3386.
