Add opt-in static libphosh embedding for GTK3

[samcday]

Add cargo vendored-phosh <command> for opt-in static libphosh embedding. Ordinary builds and distro packages keep using the published bindings and system libphosh.

The alias uses the existing xtask, selects local bindings, and builds Phosh with Meson under Cargo output. The shell runner supplies matching schemas for run/test. The first switch updates Cargo.lock; the committed lockfile remains the registry version. Embedding supports native builds and still depends on shared GTK3 and system runtime data.

This PR is the second layer of native GitHub stack #214, above the pristine imports in #211 (main ← vendor-base ← back2static), so imported sources stay outside this review diff. Vendor patches are limited to build/link support, resource registration, and three unused generated imports. The resource-registration patch remains downstream, following the decision in #210 (now closed). Workflow-trigger/demo changes belong to #206 and are excluded here.

Validation: local bundled all-target build, strict Clippy (including xtask), command smoke checks, formatting, source-staging regression test, and nested-Phoc integration tests. At af76028, both system and bundled CI build/test jobs passed, as did Debian and Alpine on both architectures. The branch build workflow was dispatched explicitly because pull_request_target uses the base workflow; its demo-rendering and publication job also passed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added a cargo vendored-phosh command for building with bundled Phosh sources.
  • Bundled builds support system or vendored native libraries, offline operation, caching, packaging, and embedding checks.
  • Phosh resources are registered automatically during startup.

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved source staging and recovery, including cached-download preservation and interrupted-build cleanup.
  • Build failures now provide clearer diagnostics.

• Documentation

  • Updated build instructions and contributor guidance for vendored sources.

Native stacking now restores automatic main CI for this layer; verified with a normal labeled PR event in run 35495986916, without changing the workflow on main.

Subtrees now use real git subtree --squash imports/updates, with downstream changes in separate commits. Source contents are unchanged by the history rewrite; AGENTS.md records the verified update and patch-export workflow. Land this stack with merge commits, preserving the subtree metadata and parent commits; do not use GitHub squash/rebase merging.

Keeping this as a draft until v0.53.0 is kicked out the door.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds vendored Phosh dispatch and configuration, bundled native build and source staging, schema handling, resource registration, CI coverage for system and bundled modes, documentation, and generated binding formatting.

Changes

Bundled libphosh support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Vendor configuration and entrypoints .cargo/..., xtask/src/main.rs, Cargo.toml, README.md, AGENTS.md	Cargo and xtask dispatch vendored Phosh commands through the vendor configuration. The runner validates schemas and sets GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR. Documentation and repository guidance describe the vendored source workflow.
Native build and embedding pipeline libphosh-rs/libphosh/sys/..., phosh/src/...	The build script selects system or bundled libphosh, stages sources, runs Meson, generates embedding metadata, and emits linker settings. Phosh resources use manual registration during shell initialization. Integration tests cover source staging and cache recovery.
Build matrix and validation .github/workflows/build.yml	CI validates system and bundled modes with separate commands, linkage checks, tests, linting, formatting, packaging, and artifacts.
Generated bindings formatting libphosh-rs/libphosh/sys/src/lib.rs	Generated bindings receive formatting and import cleanup without changes to exported declarations.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge; the previous demo-publication and interrupted-cache findings are resolved, and no new actionable failure was found in the subsequent changes.

Summary

This PR adds an opt-in development path for statically embedding the vendored GTK3 libphosh while preserving system libphosh as the ordinary build and packaging default.

• Adds a dependency-free cargo vendored-phosh <command> dispatcher and isolated Cargo configuration.
• Stages native Phosh sources and pinned subprojects under Cargo output, with offline-cache recovery and partial-static dependency discovery.
• Selects compiled vendored schemas through a Cargo runner for development and tests.
• Expands CI to build, lint, test, package-check, and verify both system and bundled link modes.
• Limits hosted demo publication to same-repository pull requests while preserving fork recording artifacts.
• Documents build requirements, lockfile switching, runtime-data requirements, packaging boundaries, and GTK4 reconciliation.

Restore --locked for the bundled build.

The bundled row passes no build flag, so line 83 runs the inner vendored cargo build without --locked. If dependency resolution differs from Cargo.lock, this lane can update the lockfile instead of failing. Set build_flags: --locked to keep both build modes deterministic. Cargo defines --locked as the CI guard against lockfile changes. (doc.rust-lang.org)
