Description

Originally described in influxdata/influxdb#7444, the arrow buttons don't work inside of a docker container for the influxdb console. History still works if you use `Ctrl+R`, but up, down, left, and right do not work.

Investigate the reason why since the history feature is pretty useful.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the InfluxDB console inside the Docker container, comparing the arrow keys with the working Ctrl+R history behavior. Trace the console input and history handling exposed by the container, then verify that up, down, left, and right work as expected.
