Terminal scroll and selection code refactored internally, with no visible behavior change found

What

The internal code handling terminal scrolling and selection-copy behavior, including the auto-copy hint and page/line scrolling, was substantially reworked, replacing separate scroll-state variables with a single stateful helper. The visible behavior, including the auto-copy hint text pointing to /config and the scroll actions themselves, appears unchanged.

Why
