Set --border-label as the title of the tmux floating pane (#4853)

The pane sets the options itself before running fzf, so that they are
in place no matter how quickly the command exits, targeted at
$TMUX_PANE; the default target would resolve to the active pane of
the session's current window.

- pane-border-format is set to '#{pane_title}' so that the label is
  displayed on the border when pane-border-status is enabled;
  pane-border-status itself is a window option in released tmux
  versions and is left alone
- When a border style is explicitly specified with --border, a popup
  is used instead of a floating pane so that the fzf-drawn border is
  the only border shown; give 'border-native' to force a floating pane
- 'none' and 'line' are treated as no border; fzf draws no box for
  either, so the label is displayed on the native border
- Remove 'border-fzf' which is now redundant; it was never released
- The title is escaped for select-pane -T which expands format
  expressions; a lone ';' is escaped as tmux would treat it as a
  command separator
- The label is skipped when ANSI stripping leaves an empty string
- --border-label-pos is ignored
- Fix remain-on-exit set on the original pane instead of the floating
  pane

- On tmux 3.7 or above, `--popup` starts fzf in a floating pane instead of a popup (#4850)
- Unlike a popup, a floating pane is not modal; you can switch to other panes and windows while fzf is running, move and resize the pane with the mouse, zoom it to fullscreen, and use copy-mode in it
- A floating pane always has a native border, which is what makes the pane movable and resizable, so `border-native` is implied
- Give `border-fzf` to fall back to a popup where fzf draws its own border
- A popup is used instead when a border style is explicitly specified with `--border`, so that the fzf-drawn border is the only border shown (`none` and `line` are treated as no border)
```sh
fzf --popup center,80%,border-fzf
fzf --popup --border rounded
```
- `--border-label` is set as the title of the floating pane, and is displayed on the border if `pane-border-status` is enabled in tmux
```sh
fzf --popup --border-label ' fzf '
```
- Added `result-final` event, a variant of `result` that is not triggered while the input stream is still open (#4835)
- Use it for one-shot, per-query actions that would otherwise re-fire on every intermediate snapshot during loading
