Allow Zed to run under multiple user accounts simultaneously (#14143)
Closes #4607

This is an attempt to enable Zed to run under multiple user accounts on
the same Mac, because it's a blocker to me really giving Zed a fair shot
at being my primary editor.

According to some helpful info from @ForLoveOfCats in #4607 the main
reason why this doesn't work is because Zed is using a Unix socket or
maybe a TCP socket with a hard-coded path and/or port. To me it looks
like it's a TCP socket so I tried changing that code in here, but I'm
stuck at trying to test it out because running `target/debug/zed` or
`target/release/zed` seems to behave differently than running an actual
app bundle. I had no luck copying the binary over to
/Applications/Zed.app/Contents/MacOS/zed because it can't find
WebRTC.framework which resides at a different relative path in the app
bundle.

If this seems like a desirable change to the core team then I'm looking
for some guidance on how to build an app bundle or otherwise test out
this change, or a nudge in the correct direction if I'm way off base
with my current approach.

Release Notes:

- Added multiuser support for up to 100 users on the same machine.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
