Make sure to place the caller terminal in raw mode such that tab completion can work. Additionally make sure to setup window size and terminal type correctly

Finally I could fix the terminal emulation when calling a pty over a vsock in a firecracker session. This now makes the terminal really usable :) Tested with the claude UI which is an ncurses based UI using many terminal features

It still does not cover everything, a few escape sequences VTE(8003) are still unsupported.
