[Bug]: Seems to be printing the TUI to the main shell, hiding previous shell output

[FlynnD273]

What did you expect to happen?

Atuin seems to be printing the TUI to the main shell window instead of a separate one. I think this is relatively new behaviour. I've tested it on both Bash and Zsh with the same issue on both. I'm fairly certain it happened after the most recent update, but I'm not entirely sure. I'd expect the shell to look like this after I close the Atuin history window:

~ ❱ echo hi there
hi there
~ ❱

What happened?

But the shell output actually looks like this:

~ ❱ echo hi there
hi there

~ ❱

<Many blank lines>

  > 3ms    2s ago echo hi there
 [   SESSION    ]
 echo hi there

~ ❱

I just started seeing this today after upgrading to 18.4 from 18.2.

[johnkalish]

looks like it was introduced post-18.3; i just downgraded to that and output looks great to me

[johnkalish]

narrowed it down to in between 18.4.0 beta 3 and beta 5

Hey! This is intentional - see #2249 for discussion. I tried to call it out and provide as much space as possible for discussion. It's also referenced in the release notes

You can set inline_height = 0 for the old, alt-screen behaviour.
