obache 0e9313f099 Update dvtm to 0.6.
PR#45315 by Bug Hunting.

Changes include:

 - window content buffering upon resize, this actually improves
    usability quite a bit. Thanks to Niki Yoshiuchi for the initial
    patch

 - multiplexing mode, press MOD+a and your keystrokes will be sent
    to all non minimized windows. Could be handy if you have to do
    something interactive simultaneously on multiple servers.

 - a bug fix which should prevent leaking open file descriptors

dvtm brings the concept of tiling window management, popularized by X11-window
managers like dwm, to the console. As a console window manager, it tries to make
it easy to work with multiple console-based programs like vim, mutt, cmus, or
irssi. dvtm is intended to be used where X11 isn't available or over SSH. In
conjunction with dtach, it can be seen as a lightweight alternative to GNU
screen.
