[ESS] How can one tell rlang not to mess up R session in ESS ?

I use it on top. This snippet comes in between loading and activation:

```
(require 'nord-theme)
(load-theme 'nord)

*snippet*

(enable-theme 'nord)
```

I have a bunch of other stuff defined in there, like:

```
(custom-theme-set-faces
 'nord
 `(tab-bar ((t (:background ,nord1 :height 1.0))))
 `(tab-bar-tab ((t (:foreground ,nord6 :background ,nord9 :box
(:line-width (4 . 2) :style flat-button)))))
 `(tab-bar-tab-inactive ((t (:foreground ,nord9 :background ,nord3
:box (:line-width (4 . 2) :style flat-button))))))
```

This might not be the best way of doing this, but it's been some years
since I added this and it still works.

Let me know if you're still having trouble with cli theming in ESS
(and you want it to work instead of disabling it). It might be worth
discussing in an issue on Github in that case.

Best,
Lionel
