Mitchell Hashimoto 03d5fa2689 lib-vt: move scrollback limits to terminal_set 
Terminal construction previously accepted GhosttyTerminalOptions with
dimensions and one scrollback byte limit. Remove the options struct from
the ABI and make ghostty_terminal_new accept columns and rows directly.

Add byte and line limit options to ghostty_terminal_set and forward them
to the runtime Terminal setters. NULL removes a limit, while zero bytes
disables scrollback. Update type metadata, tests, and all API examples.

Example: ghostty-vt Tracked Grid References

This contains a simple example of how to use the ghostty-vt terminal and tracked grid reference APIs to keep a long-lived reference to a cell as the terminal scrolls, detect when that reference loses its meaningful location, and move the same tracked handle to a new point.

This uses a build.zig and Zig to build the C program so that we can reuse a lot of our build logic and depend directly on our source tree, but Ghostty emits a standard C library that can be used with any C tooling.

Usage

Run the program:

zig build run
