I think this patch is no longer applicable now that I've pushed
[1:35ed01dfb3], ansi-color-apply now skips over every escape sequence,
not just color escape sequences.  Although I'm unable to produce the
problem of missing prompts even before my patch (e.g., in 25.2):

    ~/src $ printf 'ack linux\e[K\n'
    ack linux
    ~/src $
