Send term* escape sequence to application running in terminal when tab/window is losing/gaining focus.

My main wish is support for FocusLost/FocusGained autoevents in Vim but I suppose more applications could use that feature.

According to Bram Moolenaar (author of Vim):
-----------------------------------------------------
We have to invent a termcap/terminfo code for the escape sequence.  Two actually: One to tell the terminal to enable it and one to get the event.

It's a bit like enabling window resize events and mouse events.

I have asked Thomas Dickey (xterm) about this too.
