Subject: How to make custom REPL work in ansi-term?

Hi,

I was asking similar question long ago, I'm not able to find replies on my
mailbox but found a reference on question on Stack Overflow:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/61300784/387194

The problem is that my REPL written in NodeJS doesn't work in Emacs
ansi-term, you can use arrow keys for navigation and history.

The same happen with native nodeJS command line. When moving cursor it add
escape sequences to the input. NodeJS doesn't use readline library only it's
own implementation written in JavaScript that's probbaly not 100% compatible
with real readline.

Is there something that NodeJS can do to fix the issue. Or maybe you can give
me a pointers on what to search for in other to fix the issue. I may look into
the source code and fix the issue.
