Fix for misunderstanding in
https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/3400
Adds info about the MetricModifier config options that they can be used
with percentages, and links to the config option `adjust-cell-width`
that has more info
A few people were copying that snippet and were facing issues such as
"permission denied", and (after a subsequent `chmod`) "syntax error".

I decided to ignore this for a single-word change, since creating a
discussion then waiting for it to be promoted to an issue seemed
pointless for such a minor change.
[CONTRIBUTING.md]:

Based on both context and observed behavior, "now" was intended to be "not" in the paragraph describing the behavior of `focus-follows-mouse` is set to `true`.
This looks better than the regular dark color. It also happens to match
what Ptyxis does. It does not support non-libadwaita builds.

This was originally fixed in ghostty-org/website#152, but was
accidentally reverted in
[ghostty-org/website#99795d7882a5ee47437454c7c106c2874e0406dc](99795d7882).
P.S., you might want an PR template to discourage folks from making
unsolicited PRs like this :)

An exception is raised from the elvish integration module when
`TERMINFO` is set:
```
Exception: exec: "type": executable file not found in $PATH
ghostty-integration.elv:120:60-71: if (and (not $no-sudo) (not-eq "" $E:TERMINFO) (eq file (type -t sudo))) {
ghostty-integration.elv:38:1-123:1:
```
`type` is a builtin in bash and [in
fish](https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/type.html) but it does not
exist in elvish. I suspect it is here as an accidental copy/paste from
the ghostty [fish
integration](https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/blob/main/src/shell-integration/fish/vendor_conf.d/ghostty-shell-integration.fish#L71).
Maybe we can use the elvish
[`has-external`](https://elv.sh/ref/builtin.html#has-external) function
instead (or we could remove that check altogether).
Edit: I think this is in a merge-able state (and it would fix that
error!), but I have just converted this PR to a draft since I can see
other problems with the script. I'll give it a more thorough treatment
later and amend this PR (or also happy to merge this and do other fixes
in separate PRs).
macOS will create `.DS_Store` files in any directory it opens in Finder.
The `+list_themes` command would then list this file as a theme, and
attempt to preview it. `.DS_Store` is a binary file, and is silently
failing in the theme preview...I am on Linux and when I put a small
binary file in my user themes directory, I get a segfault. There is
something about the specific contents in `.DS_Store` that does not cause
this segfault, but lets us silently fail. We should investigate this
further - the issue is in `Config.loadFile` I believe.
In either case, we need to ignore `.DS_Store` so that it is not listed
as a theme.
From the 'CONTRIBUTING.md':
"Pull requests should be associated with a previously accepted issue. If
you open a pull request for something that wasn't previously discussed,
it may be closed or remain stale for an indefinite period of time. I'm
not saying it will never be accepted, but the odds are stacked against
you."
I understand this, and I make a PR without an issue because I feel like
this is actually binary.
On discord I've been informed the quick terminal is macOS only, and in
the documentation I don't think this is expressed, please correct me if
wrong and close this.
If it's correct and the documentation should contain it, then here's my
PR adding that information on the bottom of the section.
If the location of the added information does not fit the style
guidelines I can change it.
We do not currently support bitmap fonts in a real capacity, and they
often are missing some tables which we currently rely on for metrics,
and we don't handle the metrics calculations failing gracefully right
now.

`type` is a bash builtin and should not be used in elvish.
```
Exception: exec: "type": executable file not found in $PATH
ghostty-integration.elv:120:60-71: if (and (not $no-sudo) (not-eq "" $E:TERMINFO) (eq file (type -t sudo))) {

We can use the elvish `has-external` function instead.
The `Command.zig` tests reach outside the local source tree and look for
files on the host os machine. This introduces some portability issues
for the tests.
The nix build sandbox doesn't include `/usr/bin/env` making it error out
when `zig build test` runs `Command.zig` tests as part of a `nix build`.
Current ci and local development relies on `nix develop` sharing a host os
file system that includes `/usr/bin/env`.
Turns out `/tmp` and `/bin/sh` are available in the build sandbox in
nix so we swap these in to enable nixpkg builds to include testing
ghostty as part of any update cycle.
Update logic for generating `webgen_actions`.
Before the change, the following grouping was produced:
```md
## `copy_to_clipboard`
Copy and paste.
## `paste_from_clipboard`
## `paste_from_selection`
## `increase_font_size`
Increase/decrease the font size by a certain amount.
```
After the change, the following grouping is being produced
```md
## `copy_to_clipboard`
## `paste_from_clipboard`
## `paste_from_selection`
Copy and paste.
## `increase_font_size`
## `decrease_font_size`
Increase/decrease the font size by a certain amount.
```
