5d14603722 fix(windows): advertise terminal background to TUI apps (#332)
* fix(windows): advertise terminal background to TUI apps

* refactor(windows): keep the background hint out of config.json

The daemon needs to know whether the window is light or dark when it
spawns a Windows pane, because ConPTY drops the child's OSC 11 query
before tty7's emulator can answer it. It was reading that from
`Config::theme` — a field nothing had written since it went dead — which
meant the GUI had to rewrite the user's `config.json` every time the
effective preset changed sides.

Move the hint to `appearance.json`, beside `machine.json` in the data
dir, and leave `Config::theme` exactly as it was. It is derived state:
written by the process that paints the window, read by the process that
has to describe it, and of no interest to the user. A file of its own
rather than a field on `Machine`, because the machine tree is owned by
the daemon and flushed on a timer, so a second writer would clobber the
workspaces and panes it had not seen. Absent, unreadable, and unparsable
all read as light — what the default preset is — so a daemon that starts
before the GUI has ever applied a theme describes the default window
instead of guessing.

Also silence the `unused variable` warning the hint parameter raised on
every non-Windows build, where the `COLORFGBG` block it feeds is
compiled out.
