Exiting the shell with CTRL-D doesn't work until the shell is loaded

Dupe Check

• [X] I have searched Warp bugs and there are no duplicates

Describe the bug

When that happened I tried hitting “Ctrl-D” to kill that split, but it doesn’t have the shell loaded for about 3 seconds, so it ignores keys until then.

To reproduce

1. Add sleep 3 to your ~/.zshrc file to delay loading the shell.
2. Open a new Pane (in this case on Linux) with CTRL-SHIFT-E
3. While the new pane is loading the shell, press CTRL-D to exit the shell, notice how the exit fails, even after the shell is done loading.

Expected behavior

The shell should exit once it is done loading, or immediately upon pressing CTRL-D.

Additional context

There is a workaround which is to close the session with CTRL-SHIFT-W instead of exiting the shell with CTRL-D

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

No

Is this an issue only in Warp?

Yes, I confirmed that this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.

Hey folks, this issue can be worked around by pressing CTRL-SHIFT-W on Linux or CMD-W on macOS which will close the active session (window, tab, or pane) regardless of the shell loading state.

For anyone following this: this should be fixed in the next release (likely the week of 10/07/24)!
