The existing behavior for the new CreateNewWindow actions was to always
pass in their own options, which would discard the existing options
configured on the terminal's PTY config.
To fix this the behavior for CreateNewWindow is now the same as for the
initial window creation, the config values are overwritten conditionally
based on their individual presence in the CLI options.
However all temporary CLI options set on the "master" Alacritty
instance are discarded by all future windows.
Fixes #5659.

The existing PID/FD atomics in alacritty_terminal/src/tty/unix.rs were
shared across all Alacritty windows, causing problem with the new
multiwindow feature.
Instead of sharing these between the different windows, the master FD
and shell PID are now stored on the `window_context`.
Unfortunately this makes spawning new daemons a little more complicated,
having to pass through additional parameters. To ease this a little bit
the helper method `spawn_daemon` has been defined on the
`ActionContext`, making it accessible from most parts of Alacritty's
event loop.
Fixes #5700.

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.

Previously Alacritty would always initialize only a single terminal
emulator window feeding into the winit event loop, however some
platforms like macOS expect all windows to be spawned by the same
process and this "daemon-mode" can also come with the advantage of
increased memory efficiency.
The event loop has been restructured to handle all window-specific
events only by the event processing context with the associated window
id. This makes it possible to add new terminal windows at any time using
the WindowContext::new function call.
Some preliminary tests have shown that for empty terminals, this reduces
the cost of additional terminal emulators from ~100M to ~6M. However at
this point the robustness of the daemon against issues with individual
terminals has not been refined, making the reliability of this system
questionable.
New windows can be created either by using the new `CreateNewWindow`
action, or with the `alacritty msg create-window` subcommand. The
subcommand sends a message to an IPC socket which Alacritty listens on,
its location can be found in the `ALACRITTY_SOCKET` environment
variable.
Fixes #607.
