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

## 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>
* Create profiles by layering them
* 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
Add a MsBuild target to auto-generate a header with the defaults.json as a
string in the file. That way, we can _always_ load the defaults. Literally impossible to not.
* When the user's profile.json doesn't exist, create it from a template
* Re-order profiles to match the order set in the user's profiles.json
* Add tests for re-ordering profiles to match user ordering
* Add support for hiding profiles using `"hidden": true`
* Use the hardcoded defaults.json for the exception->"use defaults" case
* Somehow I messed up the git submodules?
* woo documentation
* Fix a Terminal.App.Unit.Tests failure
* signed/unsigned is hard
* Use Alt+Settings button to open the default settings
* Missed a signed/unsigned
* Some very preliminary PR feedback
* More PR feedback
Use the wil helper for the exe path
