Instead of discarding the saved unicode buffer when the console was
resized while in the alternate screen, resize it to the current
dimensions using vc_uniscr_copy_area() to preserve its content. This
properly restores the unicode screen on alt screen exit rather than
lazily rebuilding it from a lossy reverse glyph translation.
On allocation failure the stale buffer is freed and vc_uni_lines is
set to NULL so it gets lazily rebuilt via vc_uniscr_check() when next
needed.
