setmetamode

[Kazuhiro Fujieda]

I have implemented the `setmetamode' command and the corresponding
ioctl commands of the console device like ones on Linux.
The following is the usage of setmetamode.

$ setmetamode
escprefix
$ cat | od -t x1
                              <- Type M-x three times, ^m and ^d.
0000000 1b 78 1b 78 1b 78 0d 0a
0000010
$ setmetamode metabit
$ cat | od -t x1
                              <- Type M-x three times, ^m and ^d.
0000000 f8 f8 f8 0d 0a
0000005

The metabit mode enable Emacs to handle the escape key as a
separate key. This is important for users of viper-mode, a VI
emulator.
