This patch adds support for DEC 1007 escape sequence, thus making the alternate screen scroll work always. After applying it, the corresponding patches with the calls to vte_terminal_set_alternate_screen_scroll function can be safely dropped from the terminal applications using GTK2-based vte (e.g. xfce4-terminal). The patch has been adapted from the upstream commit in VTE3 [1].
