fn clearWrittenWindowsApi(io: Io) WindowsApiError!void {
    // This uses a 'marker' strategy. The idea is:
    // - Always write a marker (in this case U+25BA or ►) at the beginning of the progress
    // - Get the current cursor position (at the end of the progress)
    // - Subtract the number of lines written to get the expected start of the progress
    // - Check to see if the first character at the start of the progress is the marker
    // - If it's not the marker, keep checking the line before until we find it
    // - Clear the screen from that position down, and set the cursor position to the start
    //
    // This strategy works even if there is line wrapping, and can handle the window
    // being resized/scrolled arbitrarily.
    //
    // Notes:
    // - Ideally, the marker would be a zero-width character, but the Windows console
    //   doesn't seem to support rendering zero-width characters (they show up as a space)
    // - This same marker idea could technically be done with an attribute instead
    //   (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/console-screen-buffers#character-attributes)
    //   but it must be a valid attribute and it actually needs to apply to the first
    //   character in order to be readable via ReadConsoleOutputAttribute. It doesn't seem
    //   like any of the available attributes are invisible/benign.
