Remove underscore pauses from (hopefully) all snapshots
This seeks to remove the "_" from the key presses of snapshots and inline
runs in the documentation. The "_" no longer does anything, but got legacy
reasons at the moment we can't actually allow "_" to be an input to a
"faked" keypress in the docs and snapshots.

Removing these clears the way to letting "_" have the same status as any
other character.
