This makes bacon handle mouse events. Downsides: - potential regression for users pasting with middle click - major regression for users selecting and copying with the mouse - not using the scroll multiplier defined OS wide Fix #298

Managing a menu on right click, selecting with the mouse, this looks quite feasible. But some people probably use other mouse related features, eg other menu enabled features that would be specific to their terminal application. |

Fix #298
The problem of middle-click is that it's used on linux (especially linux terminals) to send as key events the content of the clipboard.
This PR "solves" the problem by making bacon manage mouse events by itself.
With this PR, bacon scrolls up and down using the mouse wheel events.
Downsides:
Given the downsides, this PR can't be merged right now.
I would need at least to manage selecting (which could be better that today's selection as it would handle the scrollbar correctly), but also replace the menu for copying that most terminals propose on right click.
