## Summary of the Pull Request
Simple fix to update the example documentation with the recent changes to 0.11.
Literally just <kbd>ctrl+f</kbd> find-and-replace all the old `profiles.json` that are sitting around in the repo with `settings.json`. I didn't touch the specs, since it seemed better to leave them in the state that they were originally authored in.
* [x] closes#5522
* [x] I work here.
* [x] This is docs.
This pull request migrates `profiles.json` to `settings.json` and removes the legacy roaming AppData settings migrator.
It also:
* separates the key bindings in defaults.json into logical groups
* syncs the universal terminal defaults with the primary defaults
* removes some stray newlines that ended up at the beginning of settings.json and defaults.json
Fixes#5186.
Fixes#3291.
### categorize key bindings
### sync universal with main
### kill stray newlines in template files
### move profiles.json to settings.json
This commit also changes Get*Settings from returning a string to
returning a std::filesystem::path. We gain in expressiveness without a
loss in clarity (since path still supports .c_str()).
NOTE: I tried to do an atomic rename with the handle open, but it didn't
work for reparse points (it moves the destination of a symbolic link
out into the settings folder directly.)
(snip for atomic rename code)
```c++
auto path{ pathToSettingsFile.wstring() };
auto renameBufferSize{ sizeof(FILE_RENAME_INFO) + (path.size() * sizeof(wchar_t)) };
auto renameBuffer{ std::make_unique<std::byte[]>(renameBufferSize) };
auto renameInfo{ reinterpret_cast<FILE_RENAME_INFO*>(renameBuffer.get()) };
renameInfo->Flags = FILE_RENAME_FLAG_REPLACE_IF_EXISTS | FILE_RENAME_FLAG_POSIX_SEMANTICS;
renameInfo->RootDirectory = nullptr;
renameInfo->FileNameLength = gsl::narrow_cast<DWORD>(path.size());
std::copy(path.cbegin(), path.cend(), std::begin(renameInfo->FileName));
THROW_IF_WIN32_BOOL_FALSE(SetFileInformationByHandle(hLegacyFile.get(),
FileRenameInfo,
renameBuffer.get(),
gsl::narrow_cast<DWORD>(renameBufferSize)));
```
(end snip)
### Stop resurrecting dead roaming profiles
This commit removes support for:
* legacy keybindings of all types
* `colorScheme.colors`, as an array
* A `globals` object in the root of the settings file
* `profile.colorTable` and `profile.colorscheme` (the rare v0.1 all-lowercase variety)
Fixes#4091.
Fixes#1069.
* Add a note about Binding multiple keys
From discussion in #4992
* Update doc/user-docs/UsingJsonSettings.md

## Summary of the Pull Request
`keys` in `keybindings` now accepts a string value. This assumes that you wanted a keychord of size 1. The schema and user docs were properly updated too.
This means that the following keybinding is now accepted in your profiles.json:
```json
{ "command": "copy", "keys": "ctrl+c" }
```
as opposed to...
```json
{ "command": "copy", "keys": [ "ctrl+c" ] }
```

## Validation Steps Performed
This commit fixes an issue where "wt -d C: wsl -d Alpine" would be
parsed as "wt -d C: -d Alpine wsl" and rejected as invalid due to the
repeated -d. It also fixes support for the option parsing terminator,
--, in all command lines.
Fixes#4277.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
🛑 **STOP** 🛑 - have you read #3495 yet? If you haven't, go do that now.
This PR adds support for three initial sub-commands to the `wt.exe` application:
* `new-tab`: Used to create a new tab.
* `split-pane`: Used to create a new split.
* `focus-tab`: Moves focus to another tab.
These commands are largely POC to prove that the commandlines work. They're not totally finished, but they work well enough. Follow up work items will be filed to track adding support for additional parameters and subcommands
Important scenarios added:
* `wt -d .`: Open a new wt instance in the current working directory #878
* `wt -p <profile name>`: Create a wt instance running the given profile, to unblock #576, #1357, #2339
* `wt ; new-tab ; split-pane -V`: Launch the terminal with multiple tabs, splits, to unblock #756
## Validation Steps Performed
* Ran tests
* Played with it a bunch
## Summary of the Pull Request
_This is attempt 2 at this feature_. The original PR can be found at #3369.
These are settings that apply to _every_ profile, before user customizations.
If the user wants to add "default profile settings", they can make the `"profiles"` property an _object_, instead of a list, and add `"defaults"` key underneath that object. The users list of profiles should then be under the `list` property of the `profiles` object.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
~~Discussion in #2325 itself serves as the "spec" for this task. I thought we'd need more discussion on the topic, but it ended up being pretty straightforward.~~
I should not have said that in the original PR. We've had a better spec review now that I think we're happier with.
## Validation Steps Performed

* Create a doc for adding common third-party tools
Maybe it would be helpful to have a comprehensive guide on adding some common third-party tools as profiles.
* add some additional tools from PR
* Add a note on using WSL paths to documentation

This PR represents the start of the work on Cascading User + default settings, #754.
Cascading settings will be done in two parts:
* [ ] Layered Default+User settings (this PR)
* [ ] Dynamic Profile Generation (#2603).
Until _both_ are done, _neither are going in. The dynamic profiles PR will target this PR when it's ready, but will go in as a separate commit into master.
This PR covers adding one primary feature: the settings are now in two separate files:
* a static `defaults.json` that ships with the package (the "default settings")
* a `profiles.json` with the user's customizations (the "user settings)
User settings are _layered_ upon the settings in the defaults settings.
## References
Other things that might be related here:
* #1378 - This seems like it's definitely fixed. The default keybindings are _much_ cleaner, and without the save-on-load behavior, the user's keybindings will be left in a good state
* #1398 - This might have honestly been solved by #2475
## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes#754
* [x] Closes#1378
* [x] Closes#2566
* [x] I work here
* [x] Tests added/passed
* [x] Requires documentation to be updated - it **ABSOLUTELY DOES**
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
1. We start by taking all of the `FromJson` functions in Profile, ColorScheme, Globals, etc, and converting them to `LayerJson` methods. These are effectively the same, with the change that instead of building a new object, they are simply layering the values on top of `this` object.
2. Next, we add tests for layering properties like that.
3. Now, we add a `defaults.json` to the package. This is the file the users can refer to as our default settings.
4. We then take that `defaults.json` and stamp it into an auto generated `.h` file, so we can use it's data without having to worry about reading it from disk.
5. We then change the `LoadAll` function in `CascadiaSettings`. Now, the function does two loads - one from the defaults, and then a second load from the `profiles.json` file, layering the settings from each source upon the previous values.
6. If the `profiles.json` file doesn't exist, we'll create it from a hardcoded `userDefaults.json`, which is stamped in similar to how `defaults.json` is.
7. We also add support for _unbinding_ keybindings that might exist in the `defaults.json`, but the user doesn't want to be bound to anything.
8. We add support for _hiding_ a profile, which is useful if a user doesn't want one of the default profiles to appear in the list of profiles.
## TODO:
* [x] Still need to make Alt+Click work on the settings button
* [x] Need to write some user documentation on how the new settings model works
* [x] Fix the pair of tests I broke (re: Duplicate profiles)
<hr>

* Update test to layer multiple times on the same profile
* Add support for layering an array of profiles, but break a couple tests
* Add a defaults.json to the package
* Layer colorschemes
* Moves tests into individual classes
* adds support for layering a colorscheme on top of another
* Layer an array of color schemes
* oh no, this was missed with #2481
must have committed without staging this change, uh oh. Not like those tests actually work so nbd
* Layer keybindings
* Read settings from defaults.json + profiles.json, layer appropriately
This is like 80% of #754. Needs tests.
* Add tests for keybindings
* add support to unbind a key with `null` or `"unbound"` or `"garbage"`
* Layer or clear optional properties
* Add a helper to get an optional variable for a bunch of different types
In the end, I think we need to ask _was this worth it_
* Do this with the stretch mode too
* Add back in the GUID check for profiles
* Add some tests for global settings layering
* M A D W I T H P O W E R

* Re-order profiles to match the order set in the user's profiles.json
