vt: pass pointer options directly to terminal_set

Previously ghostty_terminal_set required all values to be passed as
pointers to the value, even when the value itself was already a
pointer (userdata, function pointer callbacks). This forced callers
into awkward patterns like compound literals or intermediate
variables just to take the address of a pointer.

Now pointer-typed options (userdata and all callbacks) are passed
directly as the value parameter. Only non-pointer types like
GhosttyString still require a pointer to the value. This
simplifies InType to return the actual stored type for each option
and lets setTyped work with those types directly.
