Mitchell Hashimoto 8813261341 libghostty: expose version information via build options and C API
Add version (std.SemanticVersion) to the terminal build options so that
the terminal module has access to the application version at comptime.
The add() function breaks it out into version_string, version_major,
version_minor, version_patch, and version_build terminal options.

On the C API side, five new GhosttyBuildInfo variants expose these
through ghostty_build_info(). String values use GhosttyString; numeric
values use size_t. When no build metadata is present, version_build
returns a zero-length string.

The c-vt-build-info example is updated to query and print all version
fields.

Examples

Standalone projects demonstrating the Ghostty library APIs. The directories starting with c- use the C API and the directories starting with zig- use the Zig API.

Every example can be built and run using zig build and zig build run from within the respective example directory. Even the C API examples use the Zig build system (not the language) to build the project.

Running an Example

cd example/<dir>
zig build run
