2f109a84fa Stress-test ASCII video at 30/60/120 fps; fix libghostty-vt Debug build
Added a full ASCII-video benchmark suite that hammers the renderer
with 30 KiB / 70 KiB full-screen frames at 30, 60, and 120 fps
targets — both renderer-only and full-pipeline (em.Write + renderer
+ stdout). Each stream benchmark reports µs/frame, fps_ceiling, and
percent of the per-frame budget consumed.

The pipeline benchmarks revealed we were missing 120 fps by a wide
margin (190%-350% of budget at 120fps, 60-90 fps ceiling). Isolating
em.Write confirmed libghostty-vt is the bottleneck — 16-29 ms per
truecolor frame, library file at 33 MiB.

Root cause: the Makefile invoked `zig build` with no
-Doptimize, and Zig's standardOptimizeOption defaults to Debug. So
the shipped libghostty-vt was unoptimised. Fixed by pinning
ReleaseFast in the Makefile (override via GHOSTTY_VT_OPTIMIZE for
debug builds of the upstream lib).

Existing checkouts need `make clean-deps && make deps` to pick up
the rebuild.

83eb4f6b2d Add --version flag and enforce --long flags via pflag
Switches CLI flag parsing from Go's stdlib `flag` to spf13/pflag so
`--project` (and the internal `--socket` / `--identity` / `--scenario`
flags) are the only accepted form; single-hyphen long flags like
`-project` are now rejected. Help output renders the canonical `--`
form.

Adds `patterm --version`, which prints the build version, short commit,
and build date (e.g. `patterm v0.0.1 (commit abc1234, built 2026-05-14)`).
The version string is injected at build time — `make patterm` derives it
from `git describe --tags --always --dirty`, and the release workflow
injects the pushed tag. Commit/date come from the Go toolchain's
embedded VCS info via `runtime/debug.ReadBuildInfo`, so no manual
bumping is required.
