First-party child repos, Ghostty image previews, and JSONC workspace config

Upgrade impact: no user action required

Highlights:

  • Established the first-party child-repo architecture across yazelix-screen, yazelix-ghostty-cursors, yazelix-zellij-popup, yazelix-zellij-bar, yazelix-zellij-pane-orchestrator, yazelix-yazi-assets, and yazelix-ratconfig
  • Replaced copied source, copied wasm, duplicated widget code, and vendored Yazi assets with locked child-owned packages and artifacts consumed by the main runtime
  • Promoted Ghostty back to the default packaged terminal, with Yazi image previews restored through temporary first-party yazelix-zellij and yazelix-yazi Kitty-graphics passthrough forks while upstream Zellij support is still pending
  • Switched the package baseline to nixpkgs-unstable and pulled in newer Yazi/Chafa behavior that avoids the Chafa terminal-probe ghost-keypress regression
  • Made settings.jsonc the canonical user config, backed by settings_default.jsonc, JSON schema coverage, strict unknown-field diagnostics, additive repair, and complete Home Manager rendering
  • Upgraded yzx config ui into a structured JSONC settings editor with scalar pickers, keybinding rows, safer parse-error behavior, popup launch through Alt Shift C, and generic config UI machinery owned by yazelix-ratconfig
  • Added the directional workspace keymap: Alt Shift H toggles the left sidebar, Alt Shift J opens the bottom popup, Alt Shift K opens the top popup, Alt Shift L opens the right Codex agent sidebar, and Alt Shift M opens the menu popup
  • Added managed focus/reveal keys: Ctrl y switches between editor and left sidebar, Ctrl Shift Y switches between editor and right sidebar, and Alt r smart-reveals in the editor or falls back to editor/left-sidebar focus
  • Made Yazelix and native Zellij key policies data-driven through settings.jsonc, including remappable native defaults such as Ctrl Alt g/s/o for locked/scroll/session modes, Ctrl Shift H/L for tab movement, Alt 1..9 for tab jumps, Ctrl Alt p for pane groups, and Alt Shift F for focus fullscreen
  • Converged generated runtime state before launch so stale Zellij layouts, plugin permission caches, terminal configs, copied native config files, and Yazi static assets are repaired or diagnosed deterministically
  • Moved status-bar and widget ownership into yazelix-zellij-bar, including Codex, Claude, OpenCode Go, CPU/RAM, cursor, cached facts, throttled refresh, and first-paint hydration
  • Exposed standalone subsystem packages for screen rendering, Ghostty cursors, popup panes, the Zellij bar, and Yazi assets while keeping normal Yazelix installs wired automatically
  • Matured public Nix customization with mkYazelix, overlays, runtime tool sources, component toggles, child package outputs, Home Manager integration, and Cachix publishing
  • Migrated maintainer issue tracking from Go/Dolt bd to Rust br, with tracked JSONL state, ignored local SQLite cache, Nix packaging, CI initialization, and GitHub issue sync support
  • Users jumping straight from early v16 should still read the v16.2 and v16.3 notes for cursor-sidecar and flat-config-path manual actions
