The firmware parks a cursor artifact wherever text last ended, and nothing
ever turned it off - the native games did, once at startup (ESC G 0,
L4PLASMA.CPP), which is why the cabinet never showed it. Seen on the bench as
a stray block sitting in the Descent 3 nameplate.
ShowGreetingAsync now sends cursor-hidden as its first act on every plasma
open, before the clear and greeting, so every path that follows - greeting,
feedback text, bitmap rows - draws on a cursorless panel. PlasmaDisplay gains
the CursorAsync wrapper for the ESC G command the command builder already had.
