    where Display.prototype.__getUpdateList__ was taking > 1 second on an rPi3:
    We need to avoid using Frame.clear() which invalidates the entire frame
    and requires an update check of every cell (e.g. thousands in a typical
    frame). So we're going to depend on Frame.cleartoeol() which needed its
    own optimization to invalidate every cell of the current line even when
    the cells were already blank (undefined). So only mark the cells for
    update if they actually have data in them that is being cleared.
    
    Also, the putmsg() method was taking on a CRLF to the output string when
    word-wrap was enabled. So removing the trailing whitespace after word
    wrap does its thing. If this breaks other scripts, then perhaps we need
    to restore the original CRLF on the end of the word-wrapped string, but
    *only* if there was a CRLF on the end of the original string to begin
    with.
