Basically, we want to force the application in the container to (iff the container was made with a terminal) redraw said terminal immediately after an attach completes, so the fresh Attach session will be able to see what's going on (e.g. will have a shell prompt). Our current attach functions are unfortunately geared more towards podman run than podman attach and will start forwarding resize events immediately instead of waiting until the attach session is alive (much safer for short-lived podman run sessions, but broken for the podman attach case). To avoid a major rewrite, let's just manually send a SIGWINCH after attach succeeds to force a redraw.

Fixes #6253

geared more towards `podman run` than `podman attach` and will

`podman run` sessions, but broken for the `podman attach` case).
To avoid a major rewrite, let's just manually send a SIGWINCH
after attach succeeds to force a redraw.
