bug#29150: Fwd: 26.0.90; Input decoding is sometimes skipped in TTY (xterm-mouse-mode)

[Olaf Rogalsky]

Hi,

in case of a button down event, `describe-key' has some trickery to also
read the forthcoming up event. The following patch makes this trickery
work with xterm-mouse-mode.

I don't have write permission to the repositiory. I therefore would
appreciate it very much, if someone else could review und submit the
patch.

PS: It would be nice, if that person also can have a look at patch #29104

PSS: I don't think, that #29143 is related. Both, `Evil-mode' *and*
     `xterm-mouse-mode' fool around with the ?\e prefix in the
     `input-decode-map', but they obviously do it in an incompatible
     way.
