repl: remove preview when press escape

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/meixg/repl-escape-meixg into master

Fix: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/42040

This change makes the preview part disappear when pressing ESCAPE.

According to https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/80913e655fef0950be61b5fb97261956f9d2c5bb, when pressing ESCAPE before ENTER, the preview part will not be included.

without ESCAPE:

> var add = x => y => x+y
var add = x => y => x+yield  <- ENTER

with ESCAPE:

> var add = x => y => x+y
> var add = x => y => x+y <- ESCAPE
var add = x => y => x+y  <- ENTER

image

but it's confusing that the preview part is not removed after pressing ESCAPE, this change makes it more intuitive.
