This deletes the GLFW apprt from the Ghostty codebase.
The GLFW apprt was the original apprt used by Ghostty (well, before
Ghostty even had the concept of an "apprt" -- it was all just a single
application then). It let me iterate on the core terminal features,
rendering, etc. without bothering about the UI. It was a good way to get
started. But it has long since outlived its usefulness.
We've had a stable GTK apprt for Linux (and Windows via WSL) and a
native macOS app via libghostty for awhile now. The GLFW apprt only
remained within the tree for a few reasons:
1. Primarily, it provided a faster feedback loop on macOS because
building the macOS app historically required us to hop out of the
zig build system and into Xcode, which is slow and cumbersome.
2. It was a convenient way to narrow whether a bug was in the
core Ghostty codebase or in the apprt itself. If a bug was in both
the glfw and macOS app then it was likely in the core.
3. It provided us a way on macOS to test OpenGL.
All of these reasons are no longer valid. Respectively:
1. Our Zig build scripts now execute the `xcodebuild` CLI directly and
can open the resulting app, stream logs, etc. This is the same
experience we have on Linux. (Xcode has always been a dependency of
building on macOS in general, so this is not cumbersome.)
2. We have a healthy group of maintainers, many of which have access
to both macOS and Linux, so we can quickly narrow down bugs
regardless of the apprt.
3. Our OpenGL renderer hasn't been compatible with macOS for some time
now, so this is no longer a useful feature.
At this point, the GLFW apprt is just a burden. It adds complexity
across the board, and some people try to run Ghostty with it in the real
world and get confused when it doesn't work (it's always been lacking in
features and buggy compared to the other apprts).
So, it's time to say goodbye. Its bittersweet because it is a big part
of Ghostty's history, but we've grown up now and it's time to move on.
Thank you, goodbye.
(NOTE: If you are a user of the GLFW apprt, then please fork the project
prior to this commit or start a new project based on it. We've warned
against using it for a very, very long time now.)

Besides avoiding copying, this allows consumers to choose to allocate
these structs on the stack or to allocate on the heap. It also gives the
apprt.App a stable pointer sooner in the process.

The default keybinds for showing the GTK inspector (`ctrl+shift+i` and
`ctrl+shift+d`) don't work reliably in Ghostty due to the way Ghostty
handles input. You can show the GTK inspector by setting the environment
variable `GTK_DEBUG` to `interactive` before starting Ghostty but that's
not always convenient.
This adds a keybind action that will show the GTK inspector. Due to
API limitations toggling the GTK inspector using the keybind action is
impractical because GTK does not provide a convenient API to determine
if the GTK inspector is already showing. Thus we limit ourselves to
strictly showing the GTK inspector. To close the GTK inspector the user
must click the close button on the GTK inspector window. If the GTK
inspector window is already visible but is hidden, calling the keybind
action will not bring the GTK inspector window to the front.

This adds a keybinding and apprt action for #7237.

For *some* reason we have a binding for close_window but it merely closes
the surface and not the entire window. That is not only misleading but
also just wrong. Now we make a separate apprt action for close_window
that would make it show a close confirmation prompt identical to as if
the user had clicked the (X) button on the window titlebar.

Related to #6035
This implements the keybind/action portion of #5974 so that this can
have a binding and so that other apprts can respond to this and
implement it this way.

This is to facilitate the `performable:` prefix on keybinds that are
implemented using app runtime actions.

`WINDOWID` is the conventional environment variable for scripts that
want to know the X11 window ID of the terminal, so that it may call
tools like `xprop` or `xdotool`. We already know the window ID for
window protocol handling, so we might as well throw this in for
convenience.

Title. Adds a close_tab keybind that essentially behaves the exact same
as clicking the tab close button on the tab bar.

This changes quit signaling from a boolean return from core app `tick()`
to an apprt action. This simplifies the API and conceptually makes more
sense to me now.
This wasn't done just for that; this change was also needed so that
macOS can quit cleanly while fixing #4540 since we may no longer trigger
menu items. I wanted to split this out into a separate commit/PR because
it adds complexity making the diff harder to read.

This is to allow the running apprt to set the UI theme to match the
terminal application coloring.

Rather than storing a list of errors we now store a list of
"diagnostics." Each diagnostic has a richer set of structured
information, including a message, a key, the location where it occurred.
This lets us show more detailed messages, more human friendly messages, and
also let's us filter by key or location. We don't take advantage of
all of this capability in this initial commit, but we do use every field
for something.

macOS 12 is officially EOL by Apple and the project only supports
officially supported versions of macOS. Once publicly released, users on
older macOS versions will have to use older released builds.

First, this commit modifies libghostty to use a single unified action
dispatch system based on a tagged union versus the one-off callback
system that was previously in place. This change simplifies the code on
both the core and consumer sides of the library. Importantly, as we
introduce new actions, we can now maintain ABI compatibility so long as
our union size does not change (something I don't promise yet).
Second, this moves a lot more of the functions call on a surface into
the action system. This affects all apprts and continues the previous
work of introducing a more unified API for optional surface features.
