Subject: bug#41984: 28.0.50; term.el's select-window call interacts badly with modeline

I don't have a strong opinion on this. I just felt that selecting a
window because an output arrived is not a right thing to do. Any hooks
which are called during this temporarily set selected-window will have
the wrong idea which is the actual selected window (I'm not exactly
sure, why the bug happens though, I just suppose this is the reason).
I've checked now, spaceline behaves exactly the same as doom modeline.
But if you think that this is not a term.el bug, please tell the
reasons, and I'll reopen my doom-modeline issue with these reasons.
