Subject: [PATCH 1/2] feedback: when not in curses mode, just skip displaying
any message
Calling die() could trigger another call of emergency_save(), which
could fail and cause another call to statusline(), which would call
die() again... Spiralling until stack space runs out.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60853.
Bug existed since version 5.1, commit 7942dab0.
Original report was in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1976410.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] input: give up on the input stream only after millions of
errors
This mitigates a problem seen sometimes among the Red Hat crash reports:
somehow wgetch() keeps returning ERR, as if it were in nodelay mode.
(I've seen this happen once after nano came out of suspension.)
Using a much larger error-count value gives the user a few seconds
to type something and hopefully get out of the error condition.
