patch 9.0.0710: quitting/unloading/hiding a terminal does not work properlyv9.0.0710
Problem: Quitting/unloading/hiding a terminal buffer does not always work properly. Solution: Avoid that ":q!" leaves an empty buffer behind. ":bunload!" also kills the job and unloads the buffer. ":hide" does not unload the buffer. (Yee Cheng Chin, closes #11323)
