bug#57434: 28.1.91; Terminal Emacs Mac OS flickering.

[Dmitrii Kuragin]

hm... I tried it in Terminal.app as well and it flickers less, likely because it uses 256 colors, whereas in alacritty or iTerm2, I use 24 bit colors.

I tried to record a video of the behavior: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nMf_3MxRk2cTdgF3tFmzAZoxcy3vQghc/view?usp=sharing

BTW. this was

GNU Emacs 28.1 (build 1, aarch64-apple-darwin21.3.0) of 2022-04-30

and I'm running macOS 12.5.1.

Maybe someone else having access to maxOS 11 can reproduce this?
