Some new features and some regression fixes.

Summary

• Console now supports a subset of ANSI color codes.
• Console can be started in these modes:
  • Detached
  • Detached and minimized
  • Attached in Seer's tab view (with gdb logs and seer logs).
• Improved handling of \n \t and other escaped characters in gdb log window.
• Show breakpoint info as a tooltip if the breakpoint icon is clicked with LMB and held down.
• Show stack as a hex dump, with options to view as short, int, long, ascii, ...
• The "go to address" in the Assembly view now works if address it outside current assembly view.
• Visualizers can take a gdb expression for input fields for length/size of something. The visualizers are:
  • ArrayVisualizer
  • ImageVisualizer
  • MemoryVisualizer
• Fixed regression when setting/saving the editor font setting.
• Fixed bug when the Basic Struct visualizer display simple variable types (non-structs).
• Source all files in ~/.config/seergdb/scripts/ on startup.
• Fixed regression handling ignoring of system header files.
