On most platforms, things were working correctly, but had the wrong
type. On X11, there were some problems with window and display size
calculations.
Release Notes:
- Fixed issues with window positioning on X11

TODO:
- [x] Finish GPUI changes on other operating systems
This is a largely internal change to how we report data to our
diagnostics and telemetry. This PR also includes an update to our blade
backend which allows us to report errors in a more useful way when
failing to initialize blade.

There were two issues:
1. the `ModifiersChanged` event was never emitted on windows.
macOS, x11 and wayland have separate events for this, while on windows
they are sent via the usual `keyup` and `keydown` events, but
`parse_keydown_msg_keystroke` just ignored them.
2. the word segmenting regex didn't include '\' so paths weren't
correctly detected

At the current moment, the "Reveal in Finder" behavior on Windows
"opens" the file using direct execution. This causes files to be opened
with whatever software they are associated with (i.e. will open Sublime
Text instead of the file explorer).
Release Notes:
- Fixed "Reveal in Finder" on Windows to open with the File Explorer.
The new behavior always opens the file explorer with the target
folder/file pre-selected.

Upper before this PR, lower after.

This PR manually applies a MSAA to the font atlas. Before this PR, the
font may seem aliased ( espeacially on low DPI monitors ), that's
because `DirectWrite` and `CoreText` ( on which currently `Zed` built
the whole text system ) uses different anti-aliasing strategy. The
different anti-aliasing approach used by `DirectWrite` and `CoreText`:

The upper is `VSCode` font rendering result, middle `macOS`, lower this
PR ( pic captured with same font face, same font size, same DPI, same
physical resolution, same editor theme, and same magnification rate ).
This PR brings a quality similiar to `CoreText`. What's more, from the
`VSCode` image, you can see how `DirectWrite` sub-pixel anti-aliasing is
performed on the edge of the glyph. Can we achieve the same rendering
quality? Currently, No. `Zed` use a grayscale image to render glyph, and
a sub-pixel anti-aliasing `DirectWrite` requires all RGB channels and
the foreground color of the rendering glyph, which `Zed` dose not
provide.
So, to achieve the quality of `VSCode` font rendering, the text system
of `Zed` needs much much more efforts to refactor the codes.
Release Notes:

Now (on `macOS` and `Windows`) we can set font feature value:
```rust
"buffer_font_features": {
"cv01": true,
"cv03": 3,
"cv09": 1,
"VSAH": 7,
"VSAJ": 8
}
```
And one can still use `"cv01": true`.

Release Notes:
- Added font feature values, now you can set font features like `"cv01":
7`.

Currently , on Windows 10, we used a `Timer` to trigger the vsync event,
but the `Timer`'s time precision is only about 15ms, which means a
maximum of 60FPS. This PR introduces a new function to allow for higher
frame rates on Windows 10.
And after reading the codes, I found that zed triggers a draw after
handling mouse or keyboard events, so we don't need to call draw again
when we handle `WM_*` messages. Therefore, I removed the
`invalidate_client_area` function.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Zed can detect changes in monitor connections and disconnections and
provide corresponding feedback. For example, if the current window's
display monitor is disconnected, the window will be moved to the primary
monitor. And now Zed always opens on the monitor specified in
`WindowParams`.

The previous implementation relied on a background thread to wake up the
main thread,
which was prone to priority inversion under heavy load.
In a synthetic test, where we spawn 200 git processes while doing a 5ms
timeout, the old version blocked for 5-80ms, the new version blocks for
5.1-5.4ms.
Release Notes:
- Improved responsiveness of the main thread under high system load
While these would match how macOS handles this scenario, they crash on
Catalina, and require mouse clicks to interact.

This PR leverages a more modern Windows API to implement
`WindowsDispatcher`, aligning its implementation more closely with that
of the `macOS` platform. The following improvements have been made:
1. Similar to `macOS`, there is no longer a need to use `sender` and
`receiver` to dispatch a `Runnable` on the main thread.
2. There is also no longer a need to use an `Event` for synchronization.
3. Consistent with #7506 and #11269, `Runnable` is now executed with
high priority.
However, this PR raises the minimum Windows version requirement of
`GPUI` to Windows 10, specifically Windows 10 Fall Creators Update
(10.0.16299). However, the `alacritty_terminal` dependency in Zed relies
on `conPTY` on Windows, an API introduced in the Windows 10 Fall
Creators Update. Therefore, the impact of this PR on Zed should be
minimal. I'd like to hear your voices about this PR, especially about
the minimum Windows version bumping.
Release Notes:
- N/A
It seems that on the first frame after the system resumes from sleep,
`dcomp_vsync_fn` mistakenly detects the `timer_stop_event` triggering
and exits the loop.

Previously, `DirectWrite` had been following the text system
implementation on `macOS`, using the font's postscript name to
differentiate between different font faces. However, I noticed
occasional rendering issues, such as fonts incorrectly rendering as
italics. Later, I discovered that on `Windows`, the postscript name is
**not** unique. Surprisingly, even the same font can have different
postscript names on macOS and Windows! It's hard to believe! The
postscript name of a font face should be obtained from the same font
table. Why would the same font face have different names?
For example, the postscript name of ZedMono on `macOS` is
`Zed-Mono-Bold-Extended-Italic`, while on `Windows`, it is
`Zed-Mono-Extended`, missing weight and style information, leading to
incorrect rendering.
This PR introduces a `FontIdentifier` struct to uniquely identify font
faces.
Release Notes:

As per Microsoft documentation, positive values scroll right, not left.
GPUI was incorrectly assuming it perfectly mirrored vertical scrolling.

This fixes restart after updates not working on Linux.
On Linux we can't reliably get the binary path after an update, because
the original binary was deleted and the path will contain ` (deleted)`.
See: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/69343
We *could* strip ` (deleted)` off, but that feels nasty. So instead we
save the original binary path, before we do the installation, then
restart.
Later on, we can also change this to be a _new_ binary path returned by
the installers, which we then have to start.

Now, regardless of how the Zed window is closed, Zed can remember the
window's restore size.
- [x] Windows implementation
- [x] macOS implementation
- [x] Linux implementation (partial)
- [x] update SQL data base (mark column `fullscreen` as deprecated)
The current implementation on Linux is basic, and I'm not sure if it's
correct.
The variable `fullscreen` in SQL can be removed, but I'm unsure how to
do it.
edit: mark `fullscreen` as deprecated
### Case 1
When the window is closed as maximized, reopening it will open in the
maximized state, and returning from maximized state will restore the
position and size it had when it was maximized.
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/14981363/7207752e-878a-4d43-93a7-41ad1fdb3a06
### Case 2
When the window is closed as fullscreen, reopening it will open in
fullscreen mode, and toggling fullscreen will restore the position and
size it had when it entered fullscreen (note that the fullscreen
application was not recorded in the video, showing a black screen, but
it had actually entered fullscreen mode).
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/14981363/ea5aa70d-b296-462a-afb3-4c3372883ea3
### What's more
- As English is not my native language, some variable and struct names
may need to be modified to match their actual meaning.
- I am not familiar with the APIs related to macOS and Linux, so
implementation for these two platforms has not been done for now.
- Any suggestions and ideas are welcome.
Release Notes:

This aligns the Windows platform implementation with a code style
similar to macOS platform, eliminating most of the `Cell`s and
`Mutex`es. This adjustment facilitates potential future porting to a
multi-threaded implementation if required.
Overall, this PR made the following changes: it segregated all member
variables in `WindowsPlatform` and `WindowsWindow`, grouping together
variables that remain constant throughout the entire app lifecycle,
while placing variables that may change during app runtime into
`RefCell`.
Edit:
During the code refactoring process, a bug was also fixed.
**Before**:
Close window when file has changed, nothing happen:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/14981363/0bcda7c1-808c-4b36-8953-a3a3365a314e
**After**:
Now `should_close` callback is properly handled

Notable things I've had to fix due to 1.78:
- Better detection of unused items
- New clippy lint (`assigning_clones`) that points out places where assignment operations with clone rhs could be replaced with more performant `clone_into`

fixes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/9132
By setting the app id, window managers like `sway` can apply custom
configuration like `for_window [app_id="zed"] floating enable`.
Tested using `wlprop`/`hyprctl activewindow` for wayland, `xprop` for
x11.
Release Notes:
- Zed now sets the window app id / class, which can be used e.g. in
window managers like `sway`/`i3` to define custom rules
Still TODO:
* Disable the new save-as for local projects
* Wire up sending the new path to the remote server

Note: this PR doesn't enable transparency, this is left to follow-up
On my computer, I get `Yahei UI`, which makes sense since I'm using a
Chinese operating system, and `Yahei UI` includes Chinese codepoints. On
an English operating system, `Segoe UI` should be used instead.
Edit: I also choose to use the UI font selected by the system as the
fallback font, rather than hard-coding the `Arial` font.
