ui: make sure buffer is flushed before waiting for user input (issue5587)

Without this patch on Windows 'hg ci -i' hangs waiting for user input
and "examine changes to 'file'? [Ynesfdaq?]" is never displayed (at least
if the diff is sufficiently small). When Ctrl+C is pressed, this prompt
becomes visible, which suggests that the buffer just wasn't flushed.
I've never seen this happening on Linux, but this looks harmless enough
to not platform-gate it.

#require no-pure

A script to generate nasty diff worst-case scenarios:

  $ cat > s.py <<EOF
  > import random
  > for x in xrange(100000):
  >     print
  >     if random.randint(0, 100) >= 50:
  >         x += 1
  >     print hex(x)
  > EOF

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a

Check in a big file:

  $ $PYTHON ../s.py > a
  $ hg ci -qAm0

Modify it:

  $ $PYTHON ../s.py > a

Time a check-in, should never take more than 10 seconds user time:

  $ hg ci --time -m1
  time: real .* secs .user [0-9][.].* sys .* (re)
