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"
},
}
```

Brief usage notes here:
```lua
local wezterm = require 'wezterm'
local a_plugin = wezterm.plugin.require "https://github.com/owner/repo"
local config = wezterm.config_builder()
a_plugin.apply_to_config(config)
return config
```
The referenced repo is expected to have a `plugin/init.lua` file,
and by convention, return a module that exports an `apply_to_config`
function that accepts at least a config builder parameter, but may
pass other parameters, or a lua table with a `config` field that maps
to a config build parameter.
`wezterm.plugin.require` will clone the repo if it doesn't already
exist and store it in the runtime dir under `plugins/NAME` where
`NAME` is derived from the repo URL. Once cloned, the repo is
NOT automatically updated.
Only HTTP (or local filesystem) repos are allowed for the git URL;
we cannot currently use ssh for this due to conflicting version
requirements that I'll take a look at later.
`wezterm.plugin.require` will then perform `require "NAME"`,
and since the default `package.path` now includes the appropriate
location from the runtime dir, the module should load.
Two other functions are available:
`wezterm.plugin.list()` will list the plugin repos.
`wezterm.plugin.update_all()` will attempt to fast-forward or `pull
--rebase` each of the repos it finds. It doesn't currently do anything
proactive to reload the configuration afterwards; the user will need to
do that themselves.
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.
In https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/2932 the user desired to have
brightened text without the boldness, as they were accustomed to that
behavior in a couple of other terminal emulators.
This commit changes the `bold_brightens_ansi_colors` from a simple
boolean to a tristate that allows for not changing the brightness,
changing the brightness, and changing the brightness while adjusting
the boldness down to normal levels.
boolean values are accepted for backwards compatibility.
This commit introduces a rough first pass at a command palette modal.
It is an adaptation of the emoji character selector and needs
refinement.
Importantly, the default pane selector key assignment now calls
into this new command palette instead.

This allows defining those help actions that open URLs in the main
commands list, and not just for the macOS Help menu.

I'd like to push that into the status bar, so nudge people towards
that in the docs for this.
There is a config option to restore it. I'd like to ultimately
remove that though.

* Expose `activate-pane-direction` cli command
Add a new subcommand for `wezterm cli` called `activate-pane-direction`.
It allows switching the active pane in the current tab in the given
direction.
* Bump codec version
* Replace boolean flags with a single direction arg
* Run cargo fmt
This provides a means for more easily extending the default key
tables without forcing the user to recreate the entire config
for themselves.
wezterm.gui.default_keys is also added by this, but it is likely
not as useful.
ad9490ee8f unset SHELL from the
environment on startup which had the consequence of causing
`os.getenv("SHELL")` to return `nil` when used in the config file.
Rather than simply restoring SHELL env var, recognize that reading
the environment from a long lived process is prone to seeing
stable environment forever.
We already compensate for this in the pty crate's understanding
of the base environment, so this commit patches `os.getenv`
and replaces it with our own imlementation that uses that same
logic.
The base environment logic has been extended to set SHELL from
the passwd database to round things out.

There are caveats to determining this, but when we think
password entry is enabled, switch the cursor to the font-awesome
lock glyph instead of the normal cursor sprite.
fa_lock is used because it is monochrome and can thus be tinted
to the configured cursor color, and it respects blinking/easing.

The default behavior for charselect is to show the recent category
if you have previously used it, otherwise, show the default emotion
category.
