[PATCH 3/9] lib: term: add per-console terminal response parser

Add term_cdev_read_reply() to parse CSI responses from the specified
console device, replacing the open-coded parsing in term_getsize().
The function collects the response into a buffer with a single 100ms
timeout, then validates and parses it using simple_strtoul, keeping
the same timeout and parsing semantics as the original code.
Also add term_cdev_drain() to discard pending input before sending
a query, preventing stale data from being parsed as a response.
