The first thing we need to be able to do is writing to the console of our VNC server.
This includes sending text, handling command sequences and special characters, and moving the text courser.
To achieve this, we can use the vnc-rs crate with its X11Events to create events like key presses on our server.
According to the RFC linked in the documentation and manual testing, these events are working, even if the server does not have an x-server running.
