Document PSEUDOCONSOLE_WIN32_INPUT_MODE flag for CreatePseudoConsole

[pingzing]

I imagine knowing that this flag exists, and is used by Windows Terminal, would be useful information for CLI application developers.

The idea is to eventually make this the default behavior (whereupon we would simply remove it); for now, though, that code hasn’t even gone back into Windows. 😄

@DHowett Per https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/blob/223af3a54abafc18a5bee70aed563fd46b83b63a/src/winconpty/winconpty.cpp#L133 is PSEUDOCONSOLE_WIN32_INPUT_MODE currently implemented?

It is not currently intended to be used outside of Windows Terminal, or by public consumers of the Windows CreatePseudoConsole API. Watch this space though :)
