jpmschweitzerandClaude edd8a20e0d add Dart PTY wrapper and test-core harness
PtySession wraps the ptyc helper: socketpair + Process.start + recvmsg
with SCM_RIGHTS for master-fd transfer, a background isolate that
loops on blocking read() and posts byte chunks, plus write/resize/
kill/close. close() SIGTERMs the child so the PTY's EOF wakes the
reader naturally; SIGKILL + fd close + isolate kill cover the edge
where the shell ignores SIGTERM — avoids the known Linux quirk where
closing an fd doesn't unblock an in-flight read() on it.

Env defaults stamp TERM=xterm-256color, COLORTERM=truecolor,
CLICOLOR_FORCE=1 so shells + tmux + Claude emit 24-bit sequences
that xterm.dart can render. User env (HOME / USER / SHELL) still
inherits via mergePtyEnv().

ffi: 2.1.3 added as a runtime dep — the FFI bindings for socketpair,
recvmsg, read/write, and ioctl(TIOCSWINSZ) need an allocator we're
not writing by hand. Justified in pubspec + listed in licenses.yaml
per D-042.

make test-core (ci/test_core.sh) runs the Flutter-free core tests
under a 120s hard timeout with setsid + process-group kill, wired
ahead of the fast app tests in push-check so a hung PTY test can't
wedge a pre-push. Current core suite: 24 tests in ~1s.
