9f726492ac macOS: release builds from source using zig build uses ReleaseLocal (#9201)
This fixes codesign issues that are common. The official release process
does not use this, but it is useful for local builds.

5fbdb8c459 build: allow disabling i18n
GNU gettext simply is a PITA on certain platforms (i.e. Windows, musl
Linux, etc.) and currently it's not possible to cleanly remove i18n
from the build process, making building Ghostty on the aforementioned
platforms difficult. By providing users with a way to opt-out of the
i18n mechanisms (or opt-in, on platforms where i18n is disabled by
default) we can make sure that people at least have *some* way of
building Ghostty before i18n mechanisms can be integrated neatly.

9fa26387ef build: zig build test runs Xcode tests on macOS
Related to #7879

This commit updates `zig build test` to run Xcode tests, too. These run
in parallel to the Zig tests, so they don't add any time to the test.

The Xcode tests will _not_ run when: (1) the target is not macOS, or (2)
the `-Dtest-filter` option is non-empty. This makes it so that this
change doesn't affect non-macOS and doesn't affect the general dev cycle
because you usually will run `-Dtest-filter` when developing a core
feature.

I didn't add a step to only run Xcode tests because I find that when I'm
working in Xcode I'm probably going to run the tests from there anyways.
The integration with `zig build test` is just a convenience, especially
around CI.

Speaking of CI, this change also makes it so this will run in CI.

984d123fe4 macos: support configuration via CLI arguments
This makes it so `zig build run` can take arguments such as
`--config-default-files=false` or any other configuration. Previously,
it only accepted commands such as `+version`.

Incidentally, this also makes it so that the app in general can now take
configuration arguments via the CLI if it is launched as a new instance
via `open`. For example:

    open -n Ghostty.app --args --config-default-files=false

This previously didn't work. This is kind of cool.

To make this work, the libghostty C API was modified so that
initialization requires the CLI args, and there is a new C API to try to
execute an action if it was set.

7bd90e6ec4 Build system can build macOS app bundle and open it
`zig build run` on macOS now builds the app bundle via the `xcodebuild`
CLI and runs it. The experience for running the app is now very similar
to Linux or the prior GLFW build, where the app runs, blocks the zig
command, and logs to the terminal.

`xcodebuild` has its own build cache system that we can't really hook
into so it runs on every `zig build run` command, but it does cache and
I find its actually relatively fast so I think this is a good
replacement for the glfw-based system.
