Ports ZIG/src/terminal/{Screen,ScreenSet,Tabstops,Selection}.zig on top
of the page/PageList layer. The cursor holds a TrackedPin; Zig's cached
page_row/page_cell pointers become accessor methods. Selection methods
take the PageList explicitly because tracked bounds are handles.
Screen tests use minimal plain-text dump/selection-string helpers that
follow the formatter's semantics; they will delegate to the real
formatter once formatter.zig is ported.
Gaps found in the PageList layer are recorded for the parity pass in
docs/rewrite/notes/ghostty-terminal-pagelist-requests.md; three resize
tests are #[ignore]d pending those fixes (PageList::resize keeps
trailing blank rows Zig drops). Kitty image storage and StringMap are
placeholders.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-terminal (443 passed, 3 ignored; Screen 183/184,
Selection 18/18, Tabstops 4/5 - skipped tests use allocator failure
injection)

Skipped: Tabstops: resize alloc failure preserves state and selectionString map allocation failure cleanup (Zig tripwire failure injection).
Ignored (pagelist limitations, see ghostty-terminal-pagelist-requests.md): 3 resize tests.
Deps added: ghostty-unicode (width in test_write_string), ghostty-datastruct (unused so far), log.

- Cursor
page_pinis aTrackedPin;page_row/page_cellare accessors:cursor_pin(),cursor_row()/_mut(),cursor_cell()/_mut(),cursor_page()/_mut(),cursor_row_cells(),cursor_cell_left/right[_mut](n). - Errors are

Screen::new(Options);Options::new(cols, rows, max_scrollback)(0 = no scrollback).cloneisclone_screen(top, bot).cursor_copy(&Cursor, hyperlink: bool)copies the hyperlink from the other cursor's heap copy.append_grapheme(x, cp)takes a column of the cursor row.clear_cells(node, y, x0, x1)takes a half-open column range.- Selection methods take
&PageList(&screen.pages) since tracked bounds are handles:sel.start(&pages),top_left,order,contains,contained_row,ordered,eql(&pages, &other),adjust(&mut pages, adj),track(&mut pages),deinit(&mut pages).SelectionisCopy. kitty_imagesis a placeholderKittyImages { dirty }(TODO(integration) until kitty graphics storage lands).StringMapis a local struct (TODO(integration)).- Minimal plain-text formatter (
plain_formatin screen.rs) backsselection_string[_map],dump_string,dump_string_alloc[_unwrapped]; TODO(integration): delegate to formatter.rs. - Tabstops::unset XORs like Zig (unsetting an unset stop sets it).
cursor_set_hyperlinkdoes not probe the string allocator (private); it re-adds the link after growth.Screen::erase_rowscarries aViewport::Topworkaround (request 5).
