Gdbfrontend

* Fixed startup issue on MacOS for x86_64 architecture (now it must be usable on x64 MacOS, please report if you encounter any issue 🤭)
* Re-engineered debug events system
* Fixed a slightly occuring issue on closing source file issue that avoids switching previous source file when you close current one
* Updated xterm.js

* Fixed setting current directory as workdir: https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend/issues/50 (https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend/commit/dcb804bbf579bf4a3140b96f7ea337b0404d0042)

* [Don't change dir to GF directory](https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend/commit/022dd9ad29b1d2820ae8de6a4b2c95c8029d5440) https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend/issues/50
* ["cd" instad of "set cwd" for MSYS2 compatibility](https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend/commit/82e437b3271fc93de54ff80a28c76c2a85b2d8ce) (Windows support is still not available see https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend#windows)

New ArrayGraph for visualizing arrays


Alphabetically sorting feature for SourcesTree


`std::vector` support for VariablesExplorer


Handle whole expression on mouse over expression evaluating

Mouse over expression evaluation no longer handles whole expression. For example, when you put your mouse on `meow` of `cat.meow`/`cat->meow`, it will handle and evaluate whole expression as `cat.meow` or `cat->meow`.


Nim-lang enhancements

Auto and PTR array supports for VariablesExplorer


Nim `std/lists` support for LinkedListVisualization


New Sakura Theme


Bugfixes and improvements

* Re-engineered ProcessManager rendering.
* Added URL base option (`--url-base=PATH`, `-u PATH`) on startup.
* Set/enter current dirrectory (that runs GDBFrontend) as workdir.
* Enter workdir for splitted terminals.
* Make "with terminal" layout default. (We are not using `/terminal/` URL no longer.)
* Escaped <> chars for type names in VariablesExplorer.
* Pass current protocol and hostname to WS client
