We only need global Cut/Copy/Paste accelerators on macOS. Linux and
Windows do these automatically. Additionally, having these accelerators
means that we can't use shortcuts like Ctrl+C in the terminal. This PR
removes these accelerators for every platform but macOS.
With this PR, Electron will generate a new authorization key that the Go
backend will look for in any incoming requests. The Electron backend
will inject this header with all requests to the backend to ensure no
additional work is required on the frontend.
This also adds a `fetchutil` abstraction that will use the Electron
`net` module when calls are made from the Electron backend to the Go
backend. When using the `node:fetch` module, Electron can't inject
headers to requests. The Electron `net` module is also faster than the
Node module.
This also breaks out platform functions in emain into their own file so
other emain modules can import them.
This PR updates the window controls overlay code to remove the
dependency on `sharp`, which is a natively-compiled Node library that is
really hard to package for Electron given the way that we strip node
modules after bundling. I've replaced this with `pngjs`, which has a
smaller footprint and is still relatively fast (it doesn't need to be
perfect since it runs on the Node process instead of the browser
process).
The Window Controls Overlay API applies a transparent overlay on
Windows, but not on Linux. This PR addresses this by capturing the area
underneath the overlay, averaging the color of the area, and setting
this as the overlay background color.
It will also detect whether to make the control symbols white or black,
depending on how dark the background color is.
On Linux, this will set both the background color and the symbol color,
on Windows it will just set the symbol color.

This PR implements the [Window Controls Overlay
API](https://web.dev/articles/window-controls-overlay) to let us hide
the menu bar on Windows and Linux and directly embed the window controls
in our tab bar. With #239 merged, we no longer need the menu bar on
these platforms.
The overlaid window controls are transparent so they will take on the
background from the app. I've updated the tab bar to flow properly using
the API's CSS environment variables.
At some point, we may want to update the logic around the symbolColor so
that it can ensure a proper contrast between the background and the
symbols in the window controls. For now, setting them to white works for
all the backgrounds we currently support.

This improves the app updater so that it doesn't rely on unreliable
system notifications. Now, a banner in the tab bar will display when an
update is available. Clicking this will prompt the user to restart the
app and complete the installation.
This also updates the tab bar to move to the smaller tab size earlier so
we don't need to make the tab bar scrollable as much.
Adds support for window blur via the Vibrancy feature on macOS and the
BackgroundMaterial feature on Windows. The setting has no effect on
Linux. If both transparency and blur are set, transparency will take
precedence.
This adds a new global atom to track whether a window is in full screen.
It also updates the behavior of the tab bar so that it will only add an
extra left indent on macOS windows that are not in full screen.
Otherwise, the indent will be much smaller.
Adds support for building for Linux ARM targets using the new GitHub
Linux ARM64 runners. Adds a new menu item to toggle the visibility of
the menu bar on non-darwin targets,
Adds a new set of configurations for managing whether the app will
automatically check for updates. Ports over the auto update code from
the old app. In this version, the main difference is that updates can be
manually checked for using a menu bar item, even if auto updates are
disabled.
