```
tmux.Pane.SendKeys(ctx: context.Context, request: SendKeysRequest) -> error
```

SendKeys invokes tmux send-keys with the receiver's exact linked session-window-pane target. This is tmux key input, not shell execution: Literal only changes tmux key parsing, and any delivered text may still be interpreted by the pane's application. KeyName routes through a client's key table instead of delivering to the pane.

KeyName and TargetClient require tmux 3.4 and follow [UnsupportedPolicy].

Completed exit status and stderr are ignored. Transport and context errors
are delivery-ambiguous, including between Command and the separate Enter.
