This is entirely self-serving. In my go-to config, I like having some of
the panes for a given profile in a different color scheme. This will let
a user pass `--colorScheme <scheme name>` to manually override the
scheme for that profile. Neat!
This finishes the implementation of `--window` to also accept a string
as the "name" of the window. So you can say
```sh
wt -w foo new-tab
wt -w foo split-pane
```
and have both those commands execute in the same window, the one named
"foo". This is just slightly more ergonomic than manually using the IDs
of windows. In the future, I'll be working on renaming windows, and
displaying these names.

Before this PR, I think we didn't actually properly support assigning
the id with `wt -w 12345`. If `12345` didn't exist, it would make a new
window, but just assign it the next id, not assign it 12345.

## Summary of the Pull Request
The TerminalSettings object we create from profiles no longer gets passed into the control, instead, a child of that object gets passed into the control. Any overrides the control makes to the settings then live in the child. So, when we do a settings reload, we simply update the child's parent and the overrides will remain.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Bear with me, I wrote this before paternity leave, so code might be a bit stale.
Oddly, after startup, this _does not_ leave the focus on the pane you moved to. If you `move-focus` during startup, at the end of startup, we'll still focus a _random_ pane. This is because the terminal still auto-focus a TermControl when it's done with layout. While we'll maintain the active control just fine during the startup, at the end of startup, all the controls will complete layout in a random order.
This is no different than the startup right now. `wt sp ; sp ; sp` will focus a random pane at the end. This is left for a future someone to fix
This is also subject to #2398 / #4692. Moving in a direction isn't _totally_ reliable currently. `focus-pane -t ID` will certainly be more reliable, but this will work in the meantime?
## Validation Steps Performed
Opened probably 100 terminals, confirmed that the layout was always correct. Final focused pane was random, but the layout was right.
* Add a tabColor parameter to the `new-tab` and `split-panes` command
* Add --tabColor to the command line, to allow bootstrapping with tabs
of different colors
Add another field to NewTerminalArgs. Use this field to set
StartingTabColor in Terminal. This color gets overridden by the color
defined by the profile / VT, however can be overridden with the color
picker.
Since the color is the property of the Terminal, when defined for the
tab this color is associated only with the first pane/terminal of the
tab. Additional panes will not inherit this color (to prevent advanced
resolution, where we need to resolve between the inherited color and the
one specified for the pane).
## Validation Steps Performed
* UT for parameters parsing
* Running system with several tabs of different colors.
* Adding custom actions with colors
* Performing operations like split pane, duplicate and so on
Closes#8075
Currently when implicit tab command is specified (i.e., we have
parameters for new-tab, but don't have the explicit subcommand name) we
fallback to parsing the entire arg list as new tab command.
However, if we also have a launch profile (or anything else that might in
the future belong to the upper scope) it is passed as a parameter to the
new tab command, failing the parsing.
The idea behind my solution is to run the parser as a prefix command -
i.e., as long as we succeed to parse [options] / [subcommand] we will
parse them (populating the fields like a launch mode), but once we will
discover something unfamiliar, like profile, we will know that the
prefix is over and will handle the remaining suffix as a new tab
command.
## Validation Steps Performed
* UT added
* Manual run of different options
Closes#7318
This commit introduces two new launch modes: focus and maximizedFocus.
* Focused mode, behaves like a default mode, but with the Focus Mode
enabled.
* Maximized focused mode, behaves like a Maximized mode, but with the
Focus Mode enabled.
There two ways to invoke these new modes:
* In the settings file: you set the "launchMode" to either "focus" or
"maximizedFocus"
* In the command line options, you can path -f / --focus, which is
mutually exclusive with the --fullscreen, but can be combined with the
--maximized:
* Passing -f / --focus will launch the terminal in the "focus" mode
* Passing -fM / --focus --maximized will launch the terminal in the
"maximizedFocus" mode
This should resolve a relevant part in the command line arguments

Introduces a new TerminalSettingsModel (TSM) project. This project is
responsible for (de)serializing and exposing Windows Terminal's settings
as WinRT objects.
## References
#885: TSM epic
#1564: Settings UI is dependent on this for data binding and settings access
#6904: TSM Spec
In the process of ripping out TSM from TerminalApp, a few other changes
were made to make this possible:
1. AppLogic's `ApplicationDisplayName` and `ApplicationVersion` was
moved to `CascadiaSettings`
- These are defined as static functions. They also no longer check if
`AppLogic::Current()` is nullptr.
2. `enum LaunchMode` was moved from TerminalApp to TSM
3. `AzureConnectionType` and `TelnetConnectionType` were moved from the
profile generators to their respective TerminalConnections
4. CascadiaSettings' `SettingsPath` and `DefaultSettingsPath` are
exposed as `hstring` instead of `std::filesystem::path`
5. `Command::ExpandCommands()` was exposed via the IDL
- This required some of the warnings to be saved to an `IVector`
instead of `std::vector`, among some other small changes.
6. The localization resources had to be split into two halves.
- Resource file linked in init.cpp. Verified at runtime thanks to the
StaticResourceLoader.
7. Added constructors to some `ActionArgs`
8. Utils.h/cpp were moved to `cascadia/inc`. `JsonKey()` was moved to
`JsonUtils`. Both TermApp and TSM need access to Utils.h/cpp.
A large amount of work includes moving to the new namespace
(`TerminalApp` --> `Microsoft::Terminal::Settings::Model`).
Fixing the tests had its own complications. Testing required us to split
up TSM into a DLL and LIB, similar to TermApp. Discussion on creating a
non-local test variant can be found in #7743.
Closes#885

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
One important part of this change concerns how panes are initialized at runtime. We've had some persistent trouble with initializing multiple panes, because they rely on knowing how big they'll actually be, to be able to determine if they can split again.
We previously worked around this by ignoring the size check when we were in "startup", processing an initial commandline. This PR however requires us to be able to know the initial size of a pane at runtime, but before the parents have necessarily been added to the tree, or had their renderer's set up.
This led to the development of `Pane::PreCalculateCanSplit`, which is very highly similar to `Pane::PreCalculateAutoSplit`. This method attempts to figure out how big a pane _will_ take, before the parent has necessarily laid out.
This also involves a small change to `TermControl`, because if its renderer hasn't been set up yet, it'll always think the font is `{0, fontHeight}`, which will let the Terminal keep splitting in the x direction. This change also makes the TermControl set up a renderer to get the real font size when it hasn't yet been initialized.
## Validation Steps Performed
This was what the json blob I was using for testing evolved into
```json
{
"command": {
"action":"wt",
"commandline": "new-tab cmd.exe /k #work 15 ; split-pane cmd.exe /k #work 15 ; split-pane cmd.exe /k media-commandline ; new-tab powershell dev\\symbols.ps1 ; new-tab -p \"Ubuntu\" ; new-tab -p \"haunter.gif\" ; focus-tab -t 0",
},
"keys": ["ctrl+shift+n"]
}
```
I also added some tests.
# TODO
* [x] Creating a `{ "command": "wt" }` action without a commandline will spawn a new `wt.exe` process?
- Probably should just do nothing for the empty string
This adds `nt`, `sp`, and `ft` as aliases for `new-tab`, `split-pane`,
and `focus-tab`, respectively. These do exactly the same thing as their
long for counterparts, but are just shorter, for those of us who type
slower than a fifth grader 👀
Now you can do
```
wt nt cmd.exe /k #work 15 ; sp cmd.exe /k #work 15 ; sp cmd.exe /k
media-commandline ; nt powershell dev\\symbols.ps1 ; nt -p \"Ubuntu\" ;
nt -p \"Ubuntu\" ; ft -t 0
```
instead of
```
new-tab cmd.exe /k #work 15 ; split-pane cmd.exe /k #work 15 ;
split-pane cmd.exe /k media-commandline ; new-tab powershell
dev\\symbols.ps1 ; new-tab -p \"Ubuntu\" ; new-tab -p \"Ubuntu\" ;
focus-tab -t 0
```
The pattern I'm using here is that each of these subcommands now has a
little helper lambda that actually sets up the subcommand with the
required arguments, and we just call that lambda twice, once for the
long-form of the command, and again for the short.
I imagine that in the future, we won't necessarily have short-forms for
every subcommands, so if there are future conflicts we'd have to figure
that out pre-emptively, but these all seem like they'll need a short
form.
Closes#5466

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR will make the existing `Tab` class into a WinRT type. This will allow any XAML to simply bind to the `ObservableVector` of Tabs.
This PR will be followed up with a future PR to change our TabView to use the ObservableVector, which will in turn eliminate the need for maintaining two vectors of Tabs. (We currently maintain `_tabs` in `TerminalPage` and we also maintain `TabView().TabViewItems()` at the same time as described here: #2740)

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
I've currently only exposed a Tab's Title and IconPath to keep things simple. I foresee XAML elements that bind to Tabs to only really need these two properties for displaying.
I've also converted `TerminalPage`'s `std::vector<std::shared_ptr> _tabs` into a `IObservableVector<winrt::TerminalPage::Tab> _tabs` just so that future PRs will have the ground set for binding to this vector of tabs.
## Validation Steps Performed
Played around with Tabs and Panes and all sorts of combinations of keybindings for interacting with tabs and dragging and whatnot, it all seemed fine! Tab Tests also all pass.
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
