  Bracketed paste should be per-terminal [PATCH]

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Bracketed paste mode (\e[?2004h) should be per-terminal (as it is for
  xterm), not per-screen. This was fixed upstream for vte3 0.36.2,
  however Trusty ships vte3 0.34.2 and it didn't make it:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729533

  This bug is causing annoying garbage appended to every paste in mc:

  https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/3207

  I have backported the fix to Trusty, tested it in my PPA and would
  appreciate if someone could sponsor an upload in updates, since Trusty
  is LTS after all.

  [Test Case]

  Select some text ("test") and copy it into the clipboard buffer. After
  that, install mc if you don't have it already and start it:

      sudo apt-get install mc
      mc

  Press CTRL+O to swap the panels, right click with the mouse button and
  pick "Paste" from the context menu. You will see that "~0test~1" is
  pasted into the console instead of "test" as it should be.

  For more details, see the bug report on mc bug tracker referenced
  above.

  [Regression Potential]

  The patch is taken from the vte3 bug tracker; it has been in trunk for
  more than a year and is contained in vte3 0.36.2+ releases. Nobody has
  reported any problems caused by this change so far...
