console_codes.4: Add ESC [ 3 J
...
Linux 3.0 (commit f8df13e0a901fe55631fed66562369b4dba40f8b)
implements \E[3J to allow scrambling content of console
including scroll-back buffer
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1125792 ).
This is useful at terminal lock to disallow attacker to scroll
visible window back and to see sensitive data. Other \E[J sequences
do not blank history.
\E[3J is superset of \E[2J. In other words, it clears visible screen too.
