ddidderr f8c5ce06d6 feat(os): port Ghostty's Linux OS helpers
Ports ZIG/src/os for Linux into ghostty-os: XDG dirs, home dir, hostname,
env/PATH helpers, passwd lookup (via nix), shell detection, resources
dir discovery, string encodings (printf-q, URL percent), systemd
sd_notify, i18n via gettextrs, xdg-open, desktop/cgroup/kernel info,
temp dirs, URI parsing (port of std.Uri incl. Ghostty's extra options),
and a zbus-based Flatpak HostCommand implementation.

The crate stays free of unsafe. Consequences, all tracked as
TODO(integration) in docs/rewrite/notes/ghostty-os.md:
- locale::ensure_locale is a no-op (setlocale/setenv are unsafe; GTK
  calls setlocale itself); setenv/unsetenv are not exposed.
- passwd's Flatpak branch needs the termio pty and falls back to the
  sandbox entry for now.
- FlatpakHostCommand's D-Bus path is untested (no portal here).
Intentional fix: a leading '@' in NOTIFY_SOCKET is treated as an
abstract socket.

macOS/Windows/WASM modules are out of scope.

Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-os (88 tests)
- cargo clippy -p ghostty-os --all-targets -- -D warnings
