Terminal already has these values internally, this change exposes them to python.
My intention is to utilize these with a custom wrapper of Terminal class that adds support for ANSI color escapes. Having access to the cursor position makes it easy to know where in the TileGrid the colors need to get changed when an escape code is encountered.
If this overflows builds one option is try to make these available only if the tilepalettemapper module is enabled if that's possible. It's turned off for the tight builds. The two features aren't intrinsically linked, but I have no current intentions to use cursor position without tpm so it could save space and still allow my use-case.
