Implement a stack-based token parser using Ragel for efficient ANSI
escape code generation. Key features:
- Deferred emission: ANSI codes only emit when characters are printed
- Redundancy avoidance: repeated identical styles emit single code
- Auto-reset at newlines: styles automatically reset before each \n
- Stack-based nesting: {/} pops to previous state, {/name} also works
- Pre-reserved buffer for better allocation performance
Token changes:
- {b} now just bold (was bold+yellow)
- {highlight} added for bold+yellow (fuzzy match highlighting)
- {danger} added for dark red background (delete mode)
- {strike} now strikethrough text (was legacy alias)
Includes comprehensive unit test suite (25 tests) using acutest.
Add exception to .gitignore so the token system specification is tracked. This documents the complete token expansion system for reference.
- Add control tokens: {clr}, {cls}, {home}, {hide}, {show}, {goto:row,col}, {goto_cursor}
- Add zstr_expand_to() for direct output to FILE* streams
- Add token_expansion_render() with automatic cursor positioning
- Enhance TokenExpansion struct with has_cursor, final_row, final_col fields
- Update {section} token to include subtle dark gray background (256-color 237)
- Update {highlight} token for selection arrow (bold + yellow)
- Replace all raw ANSI escape codes in tui.c with tokens
- Add token_expansion_free() helper function
