Pinning the currently running tasks at the bottom of the scrolling output.

[nevdelap]

The idea is rather than the still running tasks being lost among all the scrolling RUN/SUCCESS/PASS/SKIP lines, that the currently running tasks are pinned to the visible/bottom part of the terminal, and the completed tasks scroll up as they always have. I use a script that I pipe dbt's output through to do it for me and I find it very useful. So I'm just putting it out there as an idea for discussion as to whether or not it is worth suggesting as a feature. It would need to have a command line parameter to enable it so that it didn't cause mess in build logs in CI, for example.

Doing a dbt build --full-refresh.
