* Only update appcast (trigger macOS updates) on `main`-branch triggers
* Echo the release URLs for download as part of the job
* Remove the `release-pr` workflow. We can now use `release-tip`
manually dispatched on a branch because it won't update the appcast.
Fixes#8549
This also brings the release tip workflow more in line with the release
tag workflow by using a setup job to create outputs that are reused by
the other jobs.
This PR was almost fully written by AI (Amp) because being a YAML
engineer fucking sucks. I understand GHA and the changes look good to
me, but it's hard to tell until the job is run, AI or not. Full

Without this change, a phantom space appears after any character with
default emoji presentation that is converted to text with VS15. The only
other terminal I know of that respects variation selectors is Kitty, and
it walks the cursor back, which feels like the best choice, since that
way the behavior is observable (no way to know if the terminal supports
variation selectors otherwise without hard-coding that info per term)
and "dumb" programs like `cat` will output things correctly, and not
gain a phantom space after any VS15'd emoji.

I've been playing with benchmarks over in my [branch swapping out
ziglyph for
uucode](https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/compare/main...jacobsandlund:jacob/uucode?expand=1),
and I ran into an interesting issue where benchmarks were giving odd
numbers.
TL;DR: writing to `buf[0]` ends up slowing down the benchmark in
inconsistent ways because it's the same buffer that's being written and
read in the loop, so switching to `std.mem.doNotOptimizeAway` fixes
this.
## Full story:
I ran the `codepoint-width` benchmark with the following (and also did
similarly for `grapheme-bench` and `is-symbol`):
```
zig-out/bin/ghostty-gen +utf8 | head -c 200000000 > data.txt
hyperfine --warmup 4 'zig-out/bin/ghostty-bench +codepoint-width --data=data.txt --mode=table' 'zig-out/bin/ghostty-bench +codepoint-width --data=data.txt --mode=uucode'
```
... and I was surprised to see that `uucode` was 3% slower than Ghostty,
despite similar implementations. I debugged this, bringing the `uucode`
implementation to the exact same assembly (minus offsets) as Ghostty,
even re-using the same table data (fun fact I learned is that even
though these tables are large, zig or LLVM saw they were byte-by-byte
equivalent and optimized them down to one table). Still though, 3%
slower.
Then I realized that if I wrote to a separate `buf` on `self` the
difference went away, and I figured out it's this writing to `buf[0]`
that is tripping up the CPU, because in the next outer loop it'll write
over that again when reading from the data file, and then it's read as
part of getting the code point.

```
### with buf[0], mode = .uucode
Another interesting thing is that with `buf[0]`, it's highly dependent
on the offsets somehow. If I switched the default mode line from `mode:
Mode = .noop` to `mode: Mode = .uucode`, it shifts the offsets ever so
slightly and even though that default mode is not getting used (since
it's passed in), it flips the results of the benchmark around:
```
Benchmark 1: zig-out/bin/ghostty-bench +codepoint-width --data=data.txt --mode=table
Time (mean ± σ): 973.3 ms ± 2.2 ms [User: 928.9 ms, System: 42.9 ms]
Range (min … max): 968.0 ms … 975.9 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: zig-out/bin/ghostty-bench +codepoint-width --data=data.txt --mode=uucode
Time (mean ± σ): 945.8 ms ± 1.4 ms [User: 901.2 ms, System: 42.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 943.5 ms … 948.5 ms 10 runs
Summary
zig-out/bin/ghostty-bench +codepoint-width --data=data.txt --mode=uucode ran
1.03 ± 0.00 times faster than zig-out/bin/ghostty-bench +codepoint-width --data=data.txt --mode=table
```
looking at the assembly with `mode: Mode = .noop`:
```

```
... shows the only difference is the offsets, which somehow have a large
impact on the result of the benchmark.
This fixes an issue I noticed where manually launching the `ghostty`
binary in the app bundle via the CLI would open the app but not create a
window or bring it to the front.

Use fast hash function on key for better distribution.
Direct compare glyph in eql to avoid Packed.from() if not neccessary.
16% -> 6.4% reduction during profiling runs.
I noticed that there was an off-by-one error in cell height adjustment
when the number of pixels to add/subtract is odd. The metrics measured
from the top would be shifted by one less than they should, so, for
example, the underline position would move one pixel closer to the
baseline than it had been (or one pixel further away if subtracting).
Also noticed that the overline position was missing here, so added that.

This was never confirmed to be a real issue on GTK, but it is
theoretically possible and good hygiene in general. Typically, we'd get
the title through a binding which comes from a bindinggroup which comes
from the active surface in the active tab. All of this takes multiple
event loop ticks to settle, if you will.
This commit changes it so that if an explicit, static title is set, we
set that title on startup before the window is mapped. The syncing still
happens later, but at least the window will have a title from the
initialization.

Fixes#8533
Replace the usage of `Stacked` for error pages with programmatically
swapping the child of the `adw.Bin`.
I regret to say I don't know the root cause of this. I only know that
the usage of `Stacked` plus `Gtk.Paned` and the way we programmatically
change the paned position and stack child during initialization causes
major issues.
This change isn't without its warts, too, and you can see them heavily
commented in the diff.
(1) We have to workaround a GTK template double-free bug that is well
known to us: if you bind a template child that is also the direct child
of the template class, GTK does a double free on dispose. We workaround
this by removing our child in dispose. Valgrind verifies the fix.
(2) We have to workaround an issue where setting an `Adw.Bin` child
during a glarea realize causes some kind of critical GTK error that
results in a hard crash. We delay changing our bin child to an idle
tick.

Detecting the launch source frequently failed because various launchers
fail to sanitize the environment variables that Ghostty used to detect
the launch source. For example, if your desktop environment was launched
by `systemd`, but your desktop environment did not sanitize the
`INVOCATION_ID` or the `JOURNAL_STREAM` environment variables, Ghostty
would assume that it had been launched by `systemd` and behave as such.
This led to complaints about Ghostty not creating new windows when users
expected that it would.
To remedy this, Ghostty no longer does any detection of the launch
source. If your launch source is something other than the CLI, it must
be explicitly speciflied on the CLI. All of Ghostty's default desktop
and service files do this. Users or packagers that create custom desktop
or service files will need to take this into account.
On GTK, the `desktop` setting for `gtk-single-instance` is replaced with
`detect`. `detect` behaves as `gtk-single-instance=true` if one of the
following conditions is true:
1. If no CLI arguments have been set.
2. If `--launched-from` has been set to `desktop`, `dbus`, or `systemd`.
Otherwise `detect` behaves as `gtk-single-instance=false`.
