* cargo: Reintroduce `rust-version` field
in `Cargo.toml` since it appears that client-side `cargo` will check
this field and [error when the users rust toolchain is too old][1]. Add
comments in `Cargo.toml` and `rust-toolchain.toml` pointing to each
other so the rust versions mentioned in each file are hopefully kept in
sync in the future.

* CHANGELOG: Add MR #3482.
* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.69.0
which, compared to the previous 1.67.0, has the following impacts on
`zellij`:
- [Turn off debuginfo for build deps][2]: Increases build time (on my
machine) from ~230 s in 1.67.0 to ~250 s now, *which is unexpected*
This version also changes [handling of the `default-features` flag][3]
when specifying dependencies in `Cargo.toml`. If a dependent crate
requires `default-features = true` on a crate that is required as
`default-features = false` further up the dependency tree, the `true`
setting "wins". We only specify `default-features = false` for three
crates total:
- `names`: This is used only by us
- `surf`: This is used only by us
- `vte`: This is also required by `strip-ansi-escapes`, but that has
`default-features = false` as well
How this affects our transitive dependencies is unknown at this point.

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.70.0
which, compared to the previous 1.69.0, as the following impacts on
`zellij`:
1. [Enable sparse registry checkout for crates.io by default][1]
This drastically increases the time to first build on a fresh rust
installation/a rust installation with a clean cargo registry cache.
Previously it took about 75s to populate the deps/cache (with `cargo
fetch --locked` and ~100 MBit/s network), whereas now the same process
takes ~10 s.
2. [The `OnceCell` type is now part of std][2]
In theory, this would allow us to cut a dependency from `zellij-utils`,
but the `once_cell` crate is pulled in by another 16 deps, so there's no
point in attempting it right now.
Build times and binary sizes are unaffected by this change compared to
the previous 1.69.0 toolchain.

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.75.0
which, compared to the previous 1.70.0, has the following impacts on
`zellij`:
1. [cross-crate inlining][8]
This should increase application performance, as functions can now be
inlined across crates.
2. [`async fn` in traits][9]
This would allow us to drop the `async_trait` dependency, but it is
currently still required by 3 other dependencies.
Build time in debug mode (on my own PC) is cut down from 256s to 189s
(for a clean build). Build time in release mode is cut down from 473s to
391s (for a clean build). Binary sizes only change minimally (825 MB ->
807 MB in debug, 29 MB -> 30 MB in release).

* chore: Apply rustfmt.
* CHANGELOG: Add PR #3039.
* rust: Update toolchain version to 1.67
* xtask/pipeline/publish: Drop manual "wait"
for crates.io to catch up, which is obsolete with rust 1.66 and up.
Cargo does that on its own now. See
https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11062
* xtask: Add function to obtain asset_dir
instead of assembling it on demand throughout the codebase.
* xtask/run: Add '--quick-run' flag
as a convenient shorthand for `cargo xtask run --data-dir
$PROJECT_ROOT/zellij-utils/assets`.
* cargo: Add 'q' command alias
as a shorthand for 'cargo xtask run --quick-run'
* cargo: Update thiserror to 1.0.40
* cargo: Update anyhow to 1.0.70
and specify dependency only once inside `zellij-utils`, not inside the
zellij root crate.
* cargo: Update names to 0.14.0
* cargo: Update miette to 5.7.0
and re-export the dependency from zellij-utils, to avoid duplicate
(incompatible) includes from inside zellij-utils and the root crate.
* cargo: Update dialoguer to 0.10.4
* fix formatting
* changelog: Add PR #2375
* build: strip debug symbols
Stripping the symbols for the release build drops binary size
currently by 20% and the plugin binaries by up to 50%.
Alternative: Keep the debug symbols also on releases
* bump(rust): `1.58.0` -> `1.59.0`
* chore: bump MSRV `1.56` -> `1.59`
Needed for cargos strip-debug feature
The rust-toolchain file makes
it possible to share a basic
rustup configuration across the
project.
https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html#the-toolchain-file
Important to note, this is the
current rustup hierarchy:
1. An explicit toolchain, e.g. cargo +beta,
2. The RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN environment variable,
3. A directory override, ala rustup override set beta,
4. The rust-toolchain file,
5. The default toolchain,
