feat(vterm): forward <escape> to the pty in vterm-mode
`<escape>' is bound globally to `keyboard-escape-quit' in
modules/keybindings.el, so Emacs swallows the key before it can reach the
pty. Bind it in vterm-mode-map to cj/vterm-send-escape, which writes a
literal ESC byte via vterm-send-string. tmux's copy-mode `cancel' binding
then fires; vi-mode exits, fzf cancel, etc., also work as expected.
