Description
### Windows Terminal version
1.11.34.71.0
### Windows build number
10.0.19043.1526
### Other Software
VMware® Workstation 16 Pro (version: 16.1.0 build-17198959)
EVE-NG Community edition (version: 2.0.3-112)
### Steps to reproduce
I use WT for network labs. I connect to nodes with a **Telnet** connection. And while I am inside the **CLI** of nodes and doing some stuff there. Exactly at this point when I press the **Enter key** to go to the new line. It gives me two new lines. It feels like I have pressed the key twice.
Instead of WT when I use _Solar-Putty_ this does not happen. Whereas I prefer to use WT and want it to work properly.
### Expected Behavior
It should give only one new line each time I press to the enter key
### Actual Behavior
It doubles the new line. Which is irritating.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Windows Terminal 1.11.34.71.0 using a Telnet connection to the Juniper vMX and Cisco IOS environments described, then compare Enter-key handling with Solar-PuTTY. Done means pressing Enter in the remote CLI produces exactly one new line rather than two.
