Describe the feature

Windows uses some weird scape sequences (I'm not sure if they are not standard).

It would be great it they were also removed in here (they should only be taken into account on windows, I pressume):

https://github.com/stevearc/overseer.nvim/blob/b04b0b105c07b4f02b3073ea3a98d6eca90bf152/lua/overseer/util.lua#L352C1-L357C4

I could open a PR if the feature is deemed desirable.

Provide background

I've successfuly used parsers, but the output sometimes is mangled with these weird windows escape sequences. I could work around them by this using different patterns to extract the results of the task, but I thought it would be a cleaner solution to strip the escape sequences altogether upstream.

What is the significance of this feature?

nice to have
