[Bug] Terminal scrolling jumps to top during streaming output on Linux

Bug Description
On Linux (Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS), if I use claude for an extended amount of time in a single conversation, if I scroll up while it's outputting stuff, it will shoot me to the top of the conversation every time a new chunk of output arrives on the terminal, meaning that I need to scroll down manually to get back to the content I wanted to view, only for it to happen again until the llm stops outputting. This only stops if I navigate back to the bottom of the chat.
