fix console client flicker on every update

Description
The curses call to stdscr.clear() redraws the whole window on every update which causes screen flickering. By replacing the call with one to stdscr.erase() the updates are smooth.
I did not notice a negative impact but did not grasp the whole difference between clear vs. erase either.

I assume this is for 1.3-stable as there is no screen.py in git master.

Yes, you are right. Sorry for the confusion.

Fixed in 1.3-stable: 0f962aed
I wonder if this would make a difference to the new console in git master as I noticed the extensive use of stdscr.clear there.

Fixing it this way was not effective in master, but I fixed it in my branch which is now merged into master.
