    Fix pausing in doors correctly.

    The issue appears to have been that cp437_out() would call outchar()
    for tabs. Since outchar is a higher level function, this would cause
    weird stuff.

    Just call term_out() and the problem is solved.

    Log Message:
    Skip the UTF-8 BOM when auto-detected by auto_utf8()

    I think this was the intention of this function always (hence why it returns
    a char*).

    Add comment about curious legacy behavior when sending a FF via outchar()

    Cosmetically, the blank line before the screen clear often looks good/best, except when it doesn't. But I'm pretty sure this was originally added to avoid a pause prompt being displayed near the right edge of the screen and possibly wrapping.
