Entering the terminal should not change the width of the terminal since it might lead to characters being cut off.

I have relativenumber enabled in my terminal since I like to be able to use efficient motions when in NORMAL mode. The thing is to make that possible I have to have number enabled as well which provides me with a rather useless line number. I'd rather have 0 on my current line since it keeps the number column smaller and the line number offers no useful information to me.

However. Neovim disables relativenumber when entering the terminal, but this leads to above lines being truncated by the width of the number column.

This patch removes the forceful removal of the relativenumber option. I'm arguing that it might
do more harm than good, taking away what some people want (I admit that I'm probably in the minority here ^^) and also causing some issues with certain configurations.

The current "smart" behavior also causes the viewport to "bounce", which is annoying.

I've gone in circles on this, but I agree as a general rule, if "smart" behavior is a tradeoff, forget the "smart" behavior.

#6796 already rolled back most of the problem, and this will just finish it.

The line in runtime/doc/nvim_terminal_emulator.txt needs to be deleted too.
