`[NSString UTF8String]` sometimes returns null (it's documented as
such), and when it does, zed crashes in `window::insert_text`. I'm
running into this sometimes when using alt-d to delete forward. It
usually only happens with multiple cursors, but sometimes with a single
cursor. It *might* only happen when using the "Unicode Hex Input"
keyboard 'Input Source' (which I started using to avoid entering weird
characters in zed when using emacs meta keybindings that I haven't
defined in zed).
When using the US English input source, alt-d always results in a call
to `insert_text`. When using the Unicode Hex Input source it usually
doesn't, but when it does `text.UTF8String()` returns null. `text` isn't
null. `[text length]` returns 1. `[text characterAtIndex: 0]` seems to
always return `56797` (an undefined utf-16 codepoint).
Release Notes:
- Fixed crash on mac when deleting with alt-d
Sharing a project displays a notification (window) on every screen.
Previously there was an issue with the positioning of windows on all
screens except the primary screen.
As you can see here:

Now:

@mikayla-maki and I also decided to refactor the `WindowOptions` a bit.
Previously you could specify bounds which controlled the positioning and
size of the window in the global coordinate space, while also providing
a display id (which screen to show the window on). This can lead to
unusual behavior because you could theoretically specify a global bound
which does not even belong to the display id which was provided.
Therefore we changed the api to this:
```rust
struct WindowOptions {
/// The bounds of the window in screen coordinates
/// None -> inherit, Some(bounds) -> set bounds.
pub bounds: Option<Bounds<DevicePixels>>,
/// The display to create the window on, if this is None,
/// the window will be created on the main display
pub display_id: Option<DisplayId>,
}
```
This lets you specify a display id, which maps to the screen where the
window should be created and bounds relative to the upper left of the
screen.
Release Notes:
- Fixed positioning of popup windows (e.g. when sharing a project) when
using multiple external displays.

Depends on https://github.com/zed-industries/font-kit/pull/2 and
https://github.com/kvark/blade/pull/77
This change enables Blade to be also used on MacOS. It will also make it
easier to use it on Windows.
What works: most of the things. Zed loads as fast and appears equally
responsive to the current renderer.

Things missing:
- [x] video streaming. ~~Requires a bit of plumbing on both Blade and
Zed sides, but all fairly straightforward.~~
- verified with a local setup
- [x] resize. ~~Not sure where exactly to hook up the reaction on the
window size change. Once we know where, the fix is one line.~~
- [ ] fine-tune CA Layer
- this isn't a blocker for merging the PR, but it would be a blocker if
we wanted to switch to the new path by default
- [ ] rebase on latest, get the dependency merged (need review/merge of
https://github.com/zed-industries/font-kit/pull/2!)
Update: I implemented resize support as well as "surface" rendering on
the Blade path (which will be useful on Linux/Windows later on). I
haven't tested the latter though - not sure how to get something
streaming. Would appreciate some help! I don't think this should be a
blocker to this PR, anyway.
The only little piece that's missing for the Blade on MacOS path to be
full-featured is fine-tuning the CALayer configuration. Zed does a lot
of careful logic in configuring the layer, such as switching the
"present with transaction" on/off intermittently, which Blade path
doesn't have yet.
Release Notes:
- N/A

Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug that caused Zed to render at 60fps even on ProMotion
displays.
- Fixed a bug that could saturate the main thread event loop in certain
circumstances.

I essentially went through the publicly exported items and marked these
that are e.g. leaky reexports as pub(crate). I expect that'd be done on
Tuesday anyways.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This is done by supplying the screen in the `WindowOptions` struct.
Note that it's optional, and we will let the operating system choose
which screen to show the window on when `screen` is not provided, as
we did before this change.
