Related to #4873. When Win32-OpenSSH passes through a request for application cursor keys, we dutifully start sending them. Win32-OpenSSH doesn't use VT_INPUT, though, so parsing those arrow keys falls to ConPTY. ConPTY can't do it.

Therefore, Vim in SSH can't be arrow-keyed around.

This bug tracks the quick fix work to unblock 0.10, and should be reverted when #4873 lands.
