patch 8.0.1013: terminal window behaves different from a buffer with changes

Browse Source 
Problem:    A terminal window with a running job behaves different from a
            window containing a changed buffer.
Solution:   Do not set 'bufhidden' to "hide".  Fix that a buffer where a
            terminal used to run is listed as "[Scratch]".

When the buffer associated with the terminal is unloaded or wiped out the job
is killed, similar to calling `job_stop(job, "kill")`
By default the 'bufhidden' option of the buffer will be set to "hide".
So long as the job is running: If the window is closed the buffer becomes
hidden. The command will not be stopped. The `:buffer` command can be used
to turn the current window into a terminal window. If there are unsaved
changes this fails, use ! to force, as usual.
So long as the job is running the window behaves like it contains a modified
buffer. Trying to close the window with `CTRL-W :close` or `CTRL-W :hide`
fails, unless "!" is added, in which case the job is ended. The text in the
window is lost. The buffer still exists, but getting it in a window with
`:buffer` will show an
empty buffer.
You can use `CTRL-W :hide` to close the terminal window and make the buffer
hidden, the job keeps running. The `:buffer` command can be used to turn the
current window into a terminal window. If there are unsaved changes this
fails, use ! to force, as usual.
To have a background job run without a window, and open the window when it's
done, use options like this: >
