Secure Shell + emacs stopped working

[Aleksandr Nogikh]

Hi,

After a recent Chrome update (*), I observe problems with using emacs
via Secure Shell. The displayed interface quickly becomes corrupted:
chunks of text disappear, everything is misaligned, etc. The problem
goes away after a forced redraw (CTRL+L), but comes back again almost
immediately when I continue using the editor.

The issue is especially easy to trigger when an emacs window is split
in two and a new file is opened.

Troubleshooting attempts:
* The problem persists when running `emacs -Q` (it disables all custom
configs/plugins).
* The problem does not appear when I use other terminals.

So I strongly suspect that it may be related to the recent 0.74
release of Secure Shell.

Any guidance on how to debug this further or which configuration
variables might stabilize the redraw behavior would be greatly
appreciated.

(*) The versions I currently use are

Secure Shell version 0.74
Google Chrome: Version 145.0.7632.46
GNU Emacs 30.1

most likely this is issuetracker.google.com/480963281

you can run `reset` before running emacs to workaround

The `reset` workaround helps, thank you very much!
