Remove flickering from the TUI

In some cases, the TUI flickers when redrawing.  This can be seen
mostly easily when switching layouts.

This patch fixes the problem by exploiting the double buffering that
curses already does.  In some spots, the TUI will now disable flushing
the curses buffers to the screen; and then flush them all at once when
the rendering is complete.
