Research direction

Reproduce the failure with the reported Zig 0.15.2, CMake 4.3.1, and macOS setup by running make clean build. Start with the CMake-triggered Zig build and its xcodebuild -create-xcframework command; done means the ghostty-vt xcframework is generated and the full build completes successfully.
