📄 Description

Changes

Upgrade from Zig 0.14.x to 0.15.2
Add ghostty-vt as a dependency for terminal emulation
Update build.zig for Zig 0.15 API (createModule, standardOptimizeOption, etc.)
Use -gnu suffix for Linux targets to fix PIC linker errors when cross-compiling
Update CI workflows (build-core.yml, build-native.yml) to use Zig 0.15.2
Update all zig source files for 0.15 compatibility:
- callconv(.C) → callconv(.c)
- std.ArrayList → std.ArrayListUnmanaged with explicit allocator
- Writer/BufferedWriter API changes

Testing

Cross-compiled Linux binaries (both x64 and arm64) were tested inside an OrbStack Linux VM. The full rendering pipeline works correctly - created a test that renders a multi-panel layout with boxes, text, and different border styles (rounded, single, double). The TUI output renders properly and the renderer starts/stops cleanly with exit code 0.
