dc6cf3add9 feat(build): build.zig windows support
Tested using cross-compiling from linux:

    zig build -Dcross=true -Dtarget=x86_64-windows nvim_bin

Note: not fully functional without a runtime, which still has to be
fuddled with manually

Macos and windows builds require a recent zig 0.15+dev version
As this zig master branch is currently too much in flux, we can't make
our CI depend on zig master.

Revisit CI after zig 0.15 release or at least feature freeze.

a2b0be19bf fix(build): remove deprecated aliases in build.zig removed for zig 0.15
This makes the zig build compatible with the upcoming zig 0.15 release,
while still supporting the current stable 0.14 release still used in CI.

1f004970f0 feat(build): build.zig MVP: build and run functionaltests on linux
NEW BUILD SYSTEM!

This is a MVP implementation which supports building the "nvim" binary,
including cross-compilation for some targets.
As an example, you can build a aarch64-macos binary from
an x86-64-linux-gnu host, or vice versa

Add CI target for build.zig currently for functionaltests on linux
x86_64 only

Follow up items:

-  praxis for version and dependency bumping
-  windows 💀
-  full integration of libintl and gettext (or a desicion not to)
-  update help and API metadata files
-  installation into a $PREFIX
-  more tests and linters
