Support to trim old lines in view #103

The current implementation of View cannot be used as a log output window. Because such window produces thousands of lines per second. And finally leads to OOM because old lines are not clear out of memory.

View should support something like 'max lines` just like all terminal emulators. Old lines should be removed from the internal buffer.

Is there any plans to implement this feature?

@lesovsky someone made an issue about this at awesome-gocui/gocui and it seems like this will be implemented.
Ow our fork is a community driven fork that aims to start working on gocui actively again.

@mjarkk thanks I also found that project and tracking it permanently. It seems I will switch to using fork in lesovsky/pgcenter
