bug#57367: [PATCH V2] Speed up em-smart

Hello,

I've attached my patch V2.

This restores some more of the original logic that I have now realized
was indeed necessary.  Again, this patch should not actually change
anything with respect to program logic, flow, or user experience.  In my
limited testing, it seems to act just as it did before (but
significantly more performant).

Subject: [PATCH] Speed up em-smart

em-smart was forcibly re-displaying the screen upwards of 500 times
per screen of output.  This caused the eshell to feel quite slow when
the module was in use.  Everything seems to work just fine without any
redisplay stuff so I just tore it all out.

lisp/eshell/em-smart.el:

(eshell-smart-unload-hook): Remove `eshell-smart-scroll-windows'
instead of the now deleted `eshell-refresh-windows'

(eshell-smart-displayed, eshell-currently-handling-window,
eshell-refresh-windows, eshell-smart-redisplay): Delete

(eshell-smart-scroll-window): Rename to `eshell-smart-scroll-windows'
and add a bunch of logic originally from `eshell-refresh-windows'

(eshell-smart-initialize): Don't add a hook onto
`window-scroll-functions'.  Replace `eshell-refresh-windows' with
`eshell-smart-scroll-windows'

(eshell-smart-display-setup): Don't refresh windows

(eshell-smart-scroll): Add function.  Most of the logic is copied from
the now deleted `eshell-smart-redisplay'.
