It can have some surprising effects, so leave it at the basic logical
composition of cwd + relative rather than physical.

It's not the first time that I've solved a problem by slowing things
down... in this situation, a couple of very inefficient TUI programs had
flickering outputs in wezterm because they were filling a buffer with a
bunch of spaces to erase a screen before sending the main body of their
updates in a subsequent buffer chunk. wezterm would render the
intervening partially blank frame and appear to flicker.
The resolution is to add a small delay (3ms by default) before sending
data to the terminal model. If the output is readable in that time
we'll accumulate it with the pending set of actions so that the
whole batch can be applied "more atomically".
Take care: `time cat bigfile` is sensitive to this, so we want to
keep the latency as small as possible, and we also want to avoid
accumulating actions and only flushing them at the end of the file.
We use the existing buffer size (~1MB) as a threshold: we bump
a count of the number of input bytes that resulted in the current
set of actions, and if that exceeds that buffer size we flush it.

The prior mutually exclusive behavior kept surprising people so let's
just flip this around.
This is potentially a "breaking" change for folks, but I think it is
worth it.
`wezterm start -- /etc/profile` would crash on macOS because
`/etc/profile` isn't executable.
This commit checks for executable access as a prereq for both the
path search and the absolute path cases and generates a non-crashing
error:
```
$ wezterm start -- /etc/profile
17:24:03.574 ERROR wezterm_gui > Unable to spawn /etc/profile because it doesn't exist on the filesystem or is not executable (EACCES: Permission denied); terminating
```
I think I may have inadvertently changed whether the arch portion
was included in the filename for stable releases.
Allow for that in the regex.
Remove debian 9 which is no longer supported.

Previously, we'd unconditionally enable dual source blending for the
text foreground layer when rendering. That meant that if the user had
configured the fg color to include an alpha value it would get "stamped
through" the draw all the way to the background, making that whole pixel
take on that alpha value rather than allowing it to blend through the
way you might expect.
In prior releases that didn't matter, but since we now allow configuring
the fg color with alpha, and allow using escape sequences to set the fg
for a span to something with alpha, there is now a much higher chance of
something looking weird.
Dual source blending is only really needed for subpixel-aa and that
isn't enabled by default.
This commit changes the behavior to use regular alpha blending if the
main config (rather than a per-font override) hasn't set the freetype
load/render target to one that enables subpixel-aa.
That means that alpha channel values work as expected for fg color
by default.
If you want to enable subpixel-aa you need to enable it globally
and be aware that it will cause weirdness when trying to use alpha
channels for the fg text color.
The docs now also indicate this behavior.
This limitation could be removed by making text rendering significantly
more complex and I don't fancy doing that at this time.
Consolidate the attributes together rather than having them in separate
versioned sections so that it is a bit more readable.
Make a note about how attributes select from existing fonts rather than
apply styling effects to fonts.

They prevented using other types of mouse events!
We don't have a good way to specify that kind of alias, so for now,
take it out and replace the examples in the docs with the more verbose
equivalents.

Adjusts how mouse events are matched so that we can now indicate whether
mouse reporting and alt-screen should be considered as part of the event
trigger criteria.
