Christopher Allen Lane 0737af2fec fix: pagination error on Linux
Bury the `more` pager default on Linux in an effort to work around the
following problem:

https://github.com/cheat/cheat/issues/681#issuecomment-1201842334

We're satisficing for this kludge because it does not appear to be
possible to actually make `more` perform as expected in all
environments.
