    Don't clear screen in main draw loop
    
    To avoid screen hiccups from persisting we cleared the screen on every
    redraw...
    
      https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2830
    
    This seemed fine on my laptop since I wasn't running a real relay, but under
    actual load it causes nyx to flicker annoyingly every few seconds. This was a
    hack in case of anomalies. Cure was worse than the disease.
    
    We might need to revisit this (... again), but for now this makes the
    experience of running nyx on my relay much nicer.
