f27fa98 commit introduced issue of scrolling seemingly randomly being stuck and the following message flood in the logs: "WRN: Ncurses Overflow..."
A pad is an off-screen buffer — larger than the visible terminal screen — that you can scroll, render parts of, or update selectively.
Unlike regular windows, a pad is not tied to screen size. You can create a pad that's 1,000 lines tall, even if your terminal is only 40 lines tall.
This commit addresses the issue by increasing PAD_SIZE to a reasonable number,
allowing messages from buffer to be displayed without overflowing NCurses' window size (maxy).
Minor change: add .cache folder to gitignoreProfanity
