This patch allows running `alacritty migrate` to automatically apply
configuration changes made to the TOML format, like moving `ipc_socket`
to `general.ipc_socket`.
This should reduce the friction of moving around individual options
significantly, while also persisting the format of the existing TOML
file thanks to `toml_edit`.
The YAML migration has been simplified significantly to only switch the
format of the file from YAML to TOML. The new TOML features are used for
everything else.

Some users struggle with TOML, since root options must always be at the
top of the file, since they're otherwise associated with the last table.
To avoid misunderstandings, all root-level fields have been removed. A
new `general` section was added to allow housing configuration options
that do not fit into any more specific groups.
Closes #7906.

This fixes a regression, likely introduced in 5d173f6df, which changed
the severity of missing imports from `info` back to `error`.
The cause of this issue was a more complicated error handling mechanism,
which explicitly translated IO errors to a separate enum variant without
accounting for it in all scenarios.
While retrospectively this seems completely unnecessary to me, it did
mean shorter error messages in case the main config file was not found.
To preserve the benefits of both approaches, explicit handling for the
`NotFound` IO error has been added when loading the main configuration
file.

This should help with broken YAML configurations by throwing nulls
away, which are not representable in toml.

This patch adds a new CLI parameter to the `create-window` subcommand,
matching the existing `--option` parameter when creating a new Alacritty
instance.
This parameter allows setting up the initial window configuration from
the CLI without having to call `alacritty msg config`, making sure that
all options are set appropriately right from the start.
Closes #6238.

This patch changes the way the `-o` config option works when specified
at startup to function the same way as the IPC mechanism.
While this should technically perform the exact same way, it should
hopefully make it a little easier to understand how CLI config
replacement works.

There's no need to force alacritty's user configuration on
other users of the crate, thus provide the options actually used
by alacritty_terminal itself.

The main highlight of this update is that alacritty will now use new
keyboard API from the winit, which resolves a lot of issues around
key bindings, such as ability to bind dead keys. It also fixes long
standing issues with the virtual key code bindings and make bindings
in general more predictable. It also makes our default Vi key bindings
fully working.
Given that alacritty was using `VirtualKey` directly in the bindings
from the winit, and winit simply removed the enum, we've added internal
conversions to minimize the fallout, but new way to specify the bindings
should be more intuitive.
Other part of this update fixes some forward compatibility bugs with the
Wayland backend, given that wayland-rs 0.30 is fully forward compatible.
The update also fixes weird Maximized startup issues on GNOME Wayland,
however they were present on any sane compositor.

This adds a little recommendation to use `alacritty migrate` to
automatically transition configuration files from YAML to TOML.

This switches Alacritty's default configuration format from yaml to
toml. While yaml is still supported, it is done by converting it to toml
and should be removed entirely in the future.
All existing features were persisted based on my testing. Behavior
should not change much, though `--option` might have slightly different
behavior since the entire line is not interpreted as one line of toml.
A new `alacritty migrate` subcommand has been added which allows
automatic migration from yaml to toml. This also could be used as a
facility to automatically fix configuration file changes in the future.
Closes #6592.

The recent version on xdg crate moved to home crate which is used
by cargo. Thus to query for home directory we can use the home
dependency instead which is smaller.

When using `--config-file /dev/null` with `live_config_reload`, each
write to `/dev/null` was forcing alacritty to reload its configuration.
This commit makes alacritty ignore special files for live config reload.

Alacritty's `msg create-window` subcommand would previously inherit all
the CLI parameters from the original executable. However not only could
this lead to unexpected behavior, it also prevents multi-window users
from making use of parameters like `-e`, `--working-directory`, or
`--hold`.
This is solved by adding a JSON-based message format to the IPC socket
messages which instructs the Alacritty server on which CLI parameters
should be used to create the new window.

While structopt also uses clap under the hood, the configuration through
annotations allows for significantly more maintainable and concise CLI
definition.
This will also make it far easier to have platform-specific options,
which is problematic with clap since no individual methods can be
removed from its builder.
The change in Alacritty's CLI has been kept to a minimum with the only
significant changes being the `--version` flag listed before the
`-v` flag and the authors all on the same line.

The default binding for launching the URL hints was documented as
Ctrl+Shift+U, but never actually set. This adds this binding as the
default instead of having URLs only launchable using the mouse.

This adds support for hints, which allow opening parts of the visual
buffer with external programs if they match a certain regex.
This is done using a visual overlay triggered on a specified key
binding, which then instructs the user which keys they need to press to
pass the text to the application.
In the future it should be possible to supply some built-in actions for
Copy/Pasting the action and using this to launch text when clicking on
it with the mouse. But the current implementation should already be
useful as-is.

This refactors a large chunk of the alacritty_terminal API to expose all
data necessary for rendering uniformly through the `renderable_content`
call. This also no longer transforms the cells for rendering by a GUI
but instead just reports the content from a terminal emulation
perspective. The transformation into renderable cells is now done inside
the alacritty crate.
Since the terminal itself only ever needs to know about modified color
RGB values, the configuration for colors was moved to the alacritty UI
code.

This replaces the existing `Deserialize` derive from serde with a
`ConfigDeserialize` derive. The goal of this new proc macro is to allow
a more error-friendly deserialization for the Alacritty configuration
file without having to manage a lot of boilerplate code inside the
configuration modules.
The first part of the derive macro is for struct deserialization. This
takes structs which have `Default` implemented and will only replace
fields which can be successfully deserialized. Otherwise the `log` crate
is used for printing errors. Since this deserialization takes the
default value from the struct instead of the value, it removes the
necessity for creating new types just to implement `Default` on them for
deserialization.
Additionally, the struct deserialization also checks for `Option` values
and makes sure that explicitly specifying `none` as text literal is
allowed for all options.
The other part of the derive macro is responsible for deserializing
enums. While only enums with Unit variants are supported, it will
automatically implement a deserializer for these enums which accepts any
form of capitalization.
Since this custom derive prevents us from using serde's attributes on
fields, some of the attributes have been reimplemented for
`ConfigDeserialize`. These include `#[config(flatten)]`,
`#[config(skip)]` and `#[config(alias = "alias)]`. The flatten attribute
is currently limited to at most one per struct.
Additionally the `#[config(deprecated = "optional message")]` attribute
allows easily defining uniform deprecation messages for fields on
structs.

Since the current behavior would just load the default configuration
file whenever the configuration file couldn't be loaded, the path was
not set to any value. As a result however, the live config reload
feature would not work with a broken yaml (one which cannot be
deserialized, not one with warnings).
If a configuration file has been specified, but the deserialization
still failed, the path is now preserved on the default configuration
file to make it possible to live reload a fix for the issue.
Fixes #4561.

This allows the configuration file imports to start with '~/' and
resolve relative to the user's home directory.
There is no support for '~user/' or '$HOME/' or any other shell
expansion. However since paths relative to the home directory should be
sufficient for everything, this provides a very simple solution without
any significant drawbacks.

Since we only applied the CLI arguments as overrides to the
configuration file after the file was loaded, all CLI arguments that are
stored on the config would be dropped without a configuration file in
place.
This also makes sure that all configuration file config overrides are
still loaded if the configuration file could not be loaded for any
reason, since there's no reason why we'd just drop everything in that
case.

This uses the facilities added in
3c3e6870dedad56b270f5b65ea57d5a6e46b1de6 to allow overriding individual
configuration file options dynamically from the CLI using the
--options/-o parameter.

This adds the ability for users to have multiple configuration files
which all inherit from each other.
The order of imports is chronological, branching out to the deepest
children first and overriding every field with that of the configuration
files that are loaded at a later point in time.
Live config reload watches the directories of all configuration files,
allowing edits in any of them to update Alacritty immediately. While the
imports are live reloaded, a new configuration file watcher will only be
spawned once Alacritty is restarted.
Since this might cause loops which would be very difficult to detect, a
maximum depth is set to limit the recursion possible with nested
configuration files.
Fixes #779.

This commit removes font dependency from alacritty_terminal,
so it'll simplify the usage of alacritty_terminal as a library,
since you won't link to system's libraries anymore. It also
moves many alacritty related config options from it.

This implements a basic mode for navigating inside of Alacritty's
history with keyboard bindings. They're bound by default to vi's motion
shortcuts but are fully customizable. Since this relies on key bindings
only single key bindings are currently supported (so no `ge`, or
repetition).
Other than navigating the history and moving the viewport, this mode
should enable making use of all available selection modes to copy
content to the clipboard and launch URLs below the cursor.
This also changes the rendering of the block cursor at the side of
selections, since previously it could be inverted to be completely
invisible. Since that would have caused some troubles with this keyboard
selection mode, the block cursor now is no longer inverted when it is at
the edges of a selection.
Fixes #262.

This completely removes the tabspaces option from the Alacritty
configuration, due to frequent misuse of it. Based on some research,
none of the terminal emulators support setting the value for tabspaces
or read the terminfo to determine init_tabs value at startup. The tested
terminal emulators were URxvt, XTerm, and Termite.

This reverts commit 7f4dce2ee04859fb0b48f15cf808b60065778703.
Originally it was assumed that macOS always sends the \x7f on backspace
anyways, however this is not true. It seems like the character on
backspace can change even within the same terminal session, so we need
to have our own binding to reliably set the correct binding.
A solution for #1606 should be implemented in cooperation with winit.
