e8525c0fd9 Update to Zig 0.16.0
This commit represents the majority of the work necessary to upgrade
Ghostty to use Zig 0.16.0.

Key parts:

* In addition to its previous responsibilities, the global state now
  houses state for global I/O implementations and the process
  environment. It is now also utilized in the main application along
  with the C library. Where necessary, global state is isolated from key
  parts of the implementation (e.g., in libghostty subsystems), and it's
  expected that this list will grow.

* We currently manage our own C translation layer where necessary. In
  these cases, cImport has been removed in favor of the new external
  translate-c package. Due to fixes that have needed be made to properly
  translate the dependencies that were swapped out, as mentioned, we
  have had to backport fixes from the current translate-c package (and
  the upstream Arocc dependency). We will host this ourselves until Zig
  0.17.0 is released with these fixes.

* Where necessary (only a small number of cases), some stdlib code from
  0.15.2 (and even from 0.17.0) has been taken, adopted, and vendored in
  lib/compat.

2a02b8f0ef android: build improvements
* Use a GitHub action to download the Android NDK
* Use helper functions available on `std.Build` to simplify
  the build script.
* Use various Zig-isms to simplify the code.

FYI, using Nix to seems to be a non-starter as getting any Android
development kits from nixpkgs requires accepting the Android license
agreement and allowing many packages to use unfree licenses. And since
the packages are unfree they are not cached by NixOS so the build
triggers massive memory-hungry builds.
