app-module:
- Implement `AppStartContext` to reduce amount of `app_start_` and `app_exec` functions: replace them with `app_start_with_context()`
- Add support for environment variables when starting apps
- Implement support for environment variables for apps
graphics-module:
- Add this new module
- Move font-module code into this module
- Implement pixel_buffer
apps:
- Terminal app: reduce memory usage by only buffering a single row of characters, and try to buffer in IRAM when possible. Implement new pixel_buffer.
- App List: Mark apps as favourite to pin them on top. Use touch or press "x" key.
- App List: Add toolbar button that shows alert dialog with info about using favourites
Features:
- Implemented terminal app based on BreezyBox
- Implemented shell based on BreezyBox
- Added font-module with fixed-width fonts
Improvements:
- Improved application standard-output and error-output routing, including dynamically loaded applications.
- Updated shared icons and Material Symbols mappings.
- Other improvements & fixes
- Apps can be launched directly from file paths (including Files app support)
- Added executable detection to identify unsupported or invalid binaries before launch.
- App startup is now streamlined through separate registered-app and direct-execution interfaces.
- Existing app launch points were migrated to the updated startup APIs.
- Added POSIX desktop support for SDK builds, application packaging, and integration testing.
- Added POSIX filesystem partitions and improved application path handling.
- Added simulator support for loading and running applications dynamically.
- Improved simulator task stack handling and display startup reliability.
- Improved simulator display scaling, resizing, high-DPI support, and pointer accuracy.
- Fixed LVGL timers and input polling on POSIX. (fixes simulator with Linux on some Intel graphics platforms)
- Standardized data paths across platforms.
- Logging now works via separate task: this allows apps to write to log without it affecting their stdout (for apps that output text as relevant date for other apps, like the File Selection app)
- Fixes for app stdio
