ddidderr 33d15a2dc2 feat(config): port the configuration system and CLI argument parser
Ports ZIG/src/config (minus C/WASM APIs) and cli/{args,CommaSplitter,
diagnostics}.zig into ghostty-config:
- all 202 options with exact names, types, defaults and verbatim docs,
  declared through one config_struct! macro; Zig's comptime reflection is
  replaced by the ConfigField/CliTarget traits
- loading: default XDG files, -e, config-file includes (optional '?',
  cycle detection), themes incl. light:/dark: pairs, conditional config,
  replay, finalize() derived defaults, clone/changed diffing for reload
- Linux/GTK default keybinds built on ghostty_input::binding::Set
- formatter producing +show-config output

Verified against the installed Ghostty 1.3.1: `+show-config --default`
and `--default --docs` match byte for byte (except gtk-opengl-debug,
which differs between debug/release builds), as do two complex loaded
configs.

Open items (docs/rewrite/notes/ghostty-config.md): url regex needs an
Oniguruma-compatible engine (onig) in the renderer; some font/terminal
types are local copies awaiting integration; KeyRemapSet equality is
order sensitive unlike Zig.

Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-config (255 tests)
- compare `ghostty +show-config --default --docs` with our formatter

ddidderr 987f2957ad chore: scaffold Cargo workspace for the Ghostty rewrite
Start of the full Rust rewrite of Ghostty 1.3.1 (reference source in
../ghostty). Sets up a workspace whose crates mirror Ghostty's Zig modules
(vt, unicode, datastruct, os, input, config, terminal, font, renderer,
termio, core, apprt-gtk) so porting work can proceed in parallel per crate.

Also adds:
- docs/rewrite/{ARCHITECTURE,PLAN,STATUS,AGENT_GUIDE}.md: crate map, core
  design decisions (safe Rust, slab-based PageList, logical capacity
  accounting), phased plan, progress tracker, and porting rules.
- Workspace clippy config relaxing pedantic lints that are pure noise for
  low-level terminal code (casts, long functions).
- Shared vt types needed by several work packages up front: kitty
  keyboard flags (kitty/key.rs) and the CSI separator bitset (SepList).

Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-vt (3 tests pass)
- cargo clippy -p ghostty-vt --all-targets -- -D warnings
