formatter: don't let output from the program pollute the screen

Run the formatting program outside of curses mode, so that any output
(complaints) that it produces will be on the terminal after exiting
from nano -- at least on a terminal emulator, not on a Linux VT.

This also allows the formatter to be an interactive program.

The disadvantage is that the screen flickers when typing M-F.
