This fixes a regression from our Tahoe window styling changes on
earlier, stable versions of macOS. We need to set
"titlebarAppearsTransparent" to true in order to hide the bottom border.

This is recommended for macOS Tahoe and all standard menu items now have
associated images. This makes our app look more polished and native for
macOS Tahoe.
On earlier versions of macOS (macOS 15 and earlier), we _do not_ set the
menu item image. Cocoa has supported menu item images for a long time
but it isn't idiomatic to show them in earlier versions, so we only do
this for later macOS versions.
For icon choice, I tried to copy other native macOS apps as much as
possible, mostly from Xcode. It looks like a lot of apps aren't updated
yet. I'm absolutely open to suggestions for better icons but I think
these are a good starting point.
One menu change is I moved "reset font size" above "increase font size"
which better matches other apps (e.g. Terminal.app).

We have been building on macOS 14 and Xcode 16.0 for a longggg time now.
This gets us to a version that will be running Xcode 26 eventually so we
can ultimately build for Tahoe on a stable OS.
This should change nothing in the interim.

Fixes#7568Fixes#7563
This PR incorporates all the fixes necessary to make all of our
`macos-titlebar-style` values work on macOS Tahoe.
All titlebar styles are significantly more efficient on macOS Tahoe. I
was able to refactor a lot of our complicated logic out of `update`
ticks (which are called on _every event loop tick_) to being eventful,
so the CPU required to render any titlebar style on Tahoe is
dramatically lowered. This fix _might_ be able to be back ported but I
tried my best to not modify Sequoia and earlier codebases to keep them
stable.
The major change here is `macos-titlebar-style = tabs`, which takes on a
whole new look with Tahoe. The ultimate goal of this setting is that the
_native tab bar_ goes into the titlebar, and we've respected that here.
For more background, see #7563 on why we can't easily mimic the Sequoia
style. I think longer term, for people who don't want capsule-tabs in
their titlebar, we'll need a custom tab bar.
## Future Improvements
There are obviously future improvements that can be made. I think for
example the readability in some cases of the `tabs` styling is pretty
bad. But I wonder if Apple themselves will do something about this with
the tab bar, so I'm going to hold out on caring too much.
The main goal of this PR was to make sure Ghostty was usable when
recompiled with the v26 SDKs.
## Screenshots

> Ignore the weird background color glitches in the titlebar. That's a
screenshot artifact (bug probably in macOS) and not actually visible
when running.

## TODO
- [x] A really weird bug where if I resize vertically to create
scrollback then create a new tab my font size is... tiny?
- [x] Verify no major regressions on Sequoia
- [x] Sequoia regression: non-native fullscreen with titlebar tabs
doesn't work
- [x] Sequoia regression: reset split zoom button doesn't restore for
tabs titlebar going to zero tabs
- [x] Sequoia regression: transparent isn't working
- [x] Check macOS 26 gates on Solarium instead of version?
- [ ] Merge all windows doesn't create titlebar tabs on Tahoe
