Look into binary I/O

This isn't terribly difficult, so just sharing a few links for now:

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_character
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#ASCII_control_code_chart
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C0_and_C1_control_codes
• http://misc.flogisoft.com/bash/tip_colors_and_formatting

Input needs some reconsideration. It's probably easiest to go this route:

• first parse any ANSI escape codes from the input stream and then only process the remaining bytes
• The remaining bytes should be passed to the UTF-8 sequencer in order to collect individual unicode characters (consisting of multiple bytes)
• Finally, ASCII control codes should be stripped (or possibly masked) from the input stream

Output can probably stay as-is, it's up to the consumer of this library to use binary and/or textual output.

For the reference: The UTF-8 sequencer is now available here: https://github.com/clue/php-utf8-react

I'm currently working on releasing the control code parser as a separate package as well.

For the reference: The terminal emulator is now available here: https://github.com/clue/php-term-react

I'm currently looking into integrating both libs here.
