New features:
- SDK version 7.0.0 packages include version metadata and platform-specific application settings.
- Apps gain POSIX support for file polling, terminal attributes, and standard input/output, plus additional C and POSIX functions.
- Shell commands can launch installed headless apps using their registered app settings.
- Apps can exit with a status code, and terminal clear commands support clearing from the cursor to the end, from the start through the cursor, or the entire display.
Fixes:
- SDK integration builds locate the build tool reliably and use settings for the selected platform.
- ESP32 file operations handle invalid paths and existing directories more consistently.
app-module
- Apps now have support for:
- environment variables (inherit from parent app)
- current workdir
- window size (when running in terminal)
- Add type aliases like `AppId` and `PackageId`
- Remove data duplication between ledger and app instance records: create `AppManifestSet`
- `AppManifest` usage safety improved: pass by value where needed, or use `AppId` instead of a manifest.
Terminal and shell
- Moved shell commands into coreutils-module as proper apps.
- Refine stack size for terminal and shell because apps now run with their own task and stack (including in-memory apps)
Platform
- Fix for listing root dir on ESP32: wrap posix directory functions and wire in file systems.
- Moved all platform-specific file system init code to platform subprojects
Other
- Fix for screenshot capture (issue with paths)
- Fixes for coreutils app correctness
- Memory optimizations (use more PSRAM where possible) in various locations such as app-module, shell and terminal.
- `ls` and `help` commands now use terminal width and show columns of data by default
- Created fs helpers at `TactilityKernel/include/tactility/filesystem/fs.h` (partially ported from `ShellFs`)
