Fixes this:
```
> wezterm.GLOBAL.foo = {"bar", "baz"}
> wezterm.GLOBAL.foo
[
"bar",
"baz",
]
> #wezterm.GLOBAL.foo
runtime error: [string "repl"]:1: attempt to get length of a userdata value (field 'foo')
stack traceback:
[string "repl"]:1: in main chunk
>
```
and allows this:
```
> for k, v in pairs(wezterm.GLOBAL.foo) do print(k, v) ; end
```

GH actions has been awful slow and bogged down recently,
getting in the way of work that is more important.
This commit removes a variety of alpine builds (which are
not widely used by wezterm users), and the eldest fedora
version to free up some resources.
Nudge new users towards using this style:
```lua
local config = {}
config.color_scheme = 'Batman'
return config
```
and surface how to write lua modules closer to the main section
on config files. In that lua modules section, nudge towards using
a convention similar to that of the plugin spec described in
this commit: e4ae8a844d

There were two issues in handling this:
* We expected there to be `;payload` in the first transmission packet,
but there wasn't one, so we ignored it as ill-formed.
* The standard base64 decoder in the rust ecosystem is super strict
and rejects the "sloppy" python base64 encoder output that isn't
strictly conformant with the RFC. We need to jump through some
hoops to get it to relax and accept the input.

Continuing from the previous commit, this shifts:
* In-memory data -> temporary file
* Image decoding -> background thread
The background thread asynchronously decodes frames and
sends them to the render thread via a bounded channel.
While decoding frames, it writes them, uncompressed, to
a scratch file so that when the animation loops, it is
a very cheap operation to rewind and pull that data
from the file, without having to burn CPU to re-decode
the data from the start.
Memory usage is bounded to 4 uncompressed frames while
decoding, then 3 uncompressed frames (triple buffered)
while looping over the rest.
However, disk usage is N uncompressed frames.

Need to use a newer version of libssh-rs that can report this state,
as the underlying libssh doesn't fold it into the process exit
status.

I don't recall changing it to copy to the primary selection only, and
it doesn't feel like it is something I would want anyway, and I think
it generally makes things annoying for all but power users

Previously, when resizing a tab, we'd unzoom it, recompute the resize
deltas and adjust every pane's non-zoomed position and re-zoom the
original pane.
When the alt screen is active, wezterm doesn't reflow resized lines,
and there a number of situations where the only effective change to
the line was updating a seqno; the content of those panes doesn't
actually update until the application(s) attached to the PTY
receive SIGWINCH from the kernel.
Since we were resizing the zoomed pane twice in quick succession
we could double-tap SIGWINCH and the application might coalesce
and process only one of the resize events.
The result of that was that we might see the state from either
the first or second resize event and then not get any other updates
until the application repainted itself.
This commit re-structures the resize behavior around zooms so that
we only resize the zoomed pane. When unzooming we'll fixup the
no-zoomed sizes for the whole tab. That means that we need to
store the pre-zoom size in order to correctly calculate those
sizes for the case where a pane was zoomed, the tab resized, and
then the pane was unzoomed again.

Hi,
I encountered an error while trying to upgrade Wezterm to a newer nightly build on MacOS using the previous brew command. The error message was:
“Error: Cask wezterm-nightly exists in multiple taps:
homebrew/cask-versions/wezterm-nightly
wez/wezterm/wezterm-nightly”
To resolve this issue temporarily, I modified the shell script to use the "wez/wezterm/wezterm-nightly" tap. However, I wanted to check if it's preferable to use the "homebrew/cask-versions/wezterm-nightly" tap instead. Please let me know your thoughts on this.
Thanks!
Threads through a GuiPosition from mux window creation to allow it to be
used when the corresponding gui window is created.
SpawnCommand now has an optional position field to use for that purpose.
```lua
wezterm.mux.spawn_window {
position = {
x = 10,
y = 300,
-- Optional origin to use for x and y.
-- Possible values:
-- * "ScreenCoordinateSystem" (this is the default)
-- * "MainScreen" (the primary or main screen)
-- * "ActiveScreen" (whichever screen hosts the active/focused window)
-- * {Named="HDMI-1"} - uses a screen by name. See wezterm.gui.screens()
-- origin = "ScreenCoordinateSystem"
},
}
```

The motivation here was to remove some similar but not quite the same
logic that existed for starting up when using `wezterm connect`.
Now `wezterm connect DOMAIN` is implemented as `wezterm start --domain
DOMAIN --attach --always-new-process` and a little extra hand-wave to
ensure that the default domain is set correctly.
The startup events have been refactored a bit; a new gui-attached
event is emitted after attaching and starting any default programs
in the selected domain at startup.
That event can be used to maximize windows and so on, if desired.
The gui-attached event is independent of the startup command and fires
for `wezterm connect`, which `gui-startup` did not (and could not) do.
config_builder helps to make issues more visible/useful in the case
where you may have typod a config option, or otherwise assigned
an incorrect value.
The tcgetpgrp call appears to have high variance in latency, ranging
from 200-700us on my system.
If you have 10 tabs and mouse over the tab bar, that's around 7ms
spent per frame just figuring out the foreground process; that doesn't
include actually extracting the process executable or current working
directory paths.
This was exacerbated by the mouse move events triggering a tab bar
recompute on every pixel of mouse movement.
This commit takes the following steps to resolve this:
* We now only re-compute the tab bar when the UI item is changed by
a mouse movement
* A simple single-item cache is now used on unix that allows the caller
to proceed quickly with stale-but-probably-still-mostly-accurate data
while queuing up an update to a background thread which can absorb
the latency.
The result of this is that hovering over several tabs in quick
succession no longer takes a noticeable length of time to render the
hover, but the consequence is that the contents of a given tab may be
stale by 300-400ms.
I think that trade-off is worth while.
We already have a similar trade-off on Windows, although we don't
yet do the updates in a different thread on Windows. Perhaps in
a follow up commit?

On my mac, depending the config, I noticed that modals didn't always
render immediately; force a window invalidation after assigning to
encourage them to do so.
