Add the Matrix waterfall effect when terminal is idle… #5203

Dupe Check

[X] I have searched Warp feature requests and there are no duplicates

Describe the solution you'd like?

Please add the green waterfall falling code effect from the matrix movie as an optional animation to indicate the terminal is idle..

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I’m always frustrated looking at an idle terminal and nothing is moving.

Additional context

The effect is actually quite easy to implement so there is no actual reason why it isn’t there.

Thanks for this feature request @marvin-hansen! As a stopgap, there is a CLI screensaver that does just this called cmatrix.
