Rewrite how commands from GUI are read
Instead of polling for input use a dedicated listener
thread to read commands from the GUI independently
from other threads.
To do this properly we have to delegate to the listener
all the reading from the GUI: while searching but also
while waiting for a command, like in std::getline().
So we have two possible behaviours: in-sync mode, in which
the thread mimics std::getline() and the caller blocks until
something is read from GUI, and async mode where the listener
continuously reads and processes GUI commands while other
threads are searching.
No functional change.
