Report Kitty paste event mode 5522 as unrecognized when the stream
handler has no clipboard_read effect.
Previously libghostty-vt advertised Kitty paste events unconditionally
but Kitty clipboard reads can't work without a clipboard read effect
set.

Translate printable physical keybindings through the current macOS
keyboard layout before assigning menu key equivalents. Previously these
bindings could not be represented because SwiftUI shortcuts are
character-based, so actions such as `super+backquote` had no native menu
shortcut.
Keep native keycodes as dispatch identity so translated display
characters do not change physical semantics or precedence over Unicode
bindings. Refresh shortcuts when the input source changes, and prevent
AppKit from transforming equivalents that are already localized.

most of the code and understand it all.
Follow up to #13978
`ghostty_terminal_paste` no longer takes the clipboard's data up front.
The request now carries only the list of available MIME types plus a a
callback that writes one representation's bytes into a `GhosttyWriter`.
Previously an embedder had to load every representation for every MIME
type into memory before pasting. For a clipboard holding a large image
or video next to some text that could be hundreds of megabytes that were
never used.
I also took care to make sure that the data is only read once, to avoid
any time-of-check/time-of-use (TOCTOU) issues.
There is only one case where data might be fully buffered in memory now:
unsafe text data that needs to be checked. This is true for how Ghostty
GUI works today too.

**Note: this has no changes for Ghostty GUI yet.** This only impacts
libghostty-vt.
This introduces a new `ghostty_terminal_paste` C API along with a
central `terminal.paste.paste` function that handles (1) mode 5522
(Kitty clipboard) (2) bracketed paste (3) normal paste all in one place,
combined with unsafe value detection and proper xterm-style newline
handling.
Terminal pasting is now stateful because for the Kitty clipboard
protocol in particular, it must mint "grants" that stay with the
terminal. Previously, paste encoding was stateless.
To start, this is only exposed/used by libghostty to enable Kitty
clipboard handling.
Other changes:
- **IO: randomSecure.** This also adds the `io.randomSecure`
implementation to `TinyIo` and a global sys override for it because
Kitty clipboard requires the ability to create one-time passwords and
the implementation (following Kitty) requires a crypto random source.
The sys model is for libghostty embedders.
- **New C result value: rejected.** This introduces a new C result enum
value "rejected" for values that are valid but rejected for some reason.
Its very possible that prior "invalid value" users will have to update
to this, and I recognize that its close to both but it fills an
important semantic difference.
Also note this still _eagerly_ requires all clipboard contents. I want
to move to a callback based model but it made the PR much more
complicated. I plan on playing with that before converting apprt's to
this.
This builds out the core logic and state machine for the Kitty drag and
drop protocol for _drops only_. This hooks it into libghostty-vt's Zig
API but it isn't available to the C API and it isn't hooked up to any
Ghostty GUI. It isn't really recommended that Zig consumers integrate
this yet because I'm sure the API will continue to change dramatically
as I address the missing features: drag source, remote drops, etc.
The major thing this does it the core `src/terminal/kitty/dnd.zig` stuff
with e2e tests extracted from Kitty's own `kitty_tets/dnd.py`. So this
verifies that what we have so far is working properly.
This implements the full Kitty clipboard protocol for libghostty-vt.
libghostty users need to only have the clipboard read/write effect for
this to work. This doesn't yet do mode 5522.
Hi, I noticed that this XKB config line was causing problems for
Ghosttty:
```
key <DELE> { [ ISO_Level3_Shift ] };
```
That's a valid reconfiguration of the "delete key" as a modifier, and
the same worked find in other terminal emulators (like Alacritty). With
Ghosttty, I was getting actual `<delete>` behaviour whenever I pressed
the modifier key (although the modifier engaged after that).
This patch fixes it. In line with your AI disclose policy: I made the
patch with Codex Sol. The logical fix is very succinct, and the bulk of
the patch works around an underlying issue to do with GDK not
recognising some modifiers as modifiers. I've tested the implementation
and the patch definitely resolves it!
This implements only the clipboard _write_ side of the Kitty clipboard
protocol for libghostty-vt. libghostty users don't need to do anything,
this all automatically works since it just piggy-backs on the previous
clipboard write effect.
Clipboard reading is far more complicated because we don't have anything
designed yet for libghostty-vt that does async requests (e.g. to ask the
user for permission). I need to think about that more.
This adds a `clipboard_read` effect to the stream terminal handler and a
matching `GHOSTTY_TERMINAL_OPT_CLIPBOARD_READ` callback to the
libghostty-vt C API so that embedders can answer OSC 52 read requests
(the `?` payload).
This is a _blocking_ effect: if the embedder needs to ask the user for
permission, the entire VT processing pipeline is _blocked_ during the
callback. This is a purposeful simplification choice compared to how
Ghostty GUI works with async requests. I think its reasonable, it
eliminates a TON of complexity.
If the effect isn't set, then any clipboard reads are denied.
This can be expanded easily to support Kitty clipboard protocol later.

This includes only parsing of the OSC. You cannot use OSC 99 to send
notifications. Uses lazy parsing of the metadata modelled on the new OSC
133 behavior.
