What came of waiting for a pane to do something.

Running out of time is an outcome rather than an error, because a caller
retries "it has not happened yet" and "tmux could not be reached"
differently, and an error kind would make them look alike.

## Example

```rust
use libtmux::PaneWait;

fn keep_waiting(outcome: PaneWait) -> bool {
    matches!(outcome, PaneWait::TimedOut)
}

assert!(keep_waiting(PaneWait::TimedOut));
assert!(!keep_waiting(PaneWait::Dead));
```

## Members

- `Arrived` (constant): What was waited for happened.
- `Dead` (constant): The pane's process ended before it happened. Waiting longer cannot change the answer, which is why this is not a timeout.
- `TimedOut` (constant): The time ran out with the pane still alive.
