/** @defgroup key Key Encoding
*
* Utilities for encoding key events into terminal escape sequences,
* supporting both legacy encoding as well as Kitty Keyboard Protocol.
*
* ## Basic Usage
*
* 1. Create an encoder instance with ghostty_key_encoder_new()
* 2. Configure encoder options with ghostty_key_encoder_setopt().
* 3. For each key event:
* - Create a key event with ghostty_key_event_new()
* - Set event properties (action, key, modifiers, etc.)
* - Encode with ghostty_key_encoder_encode()
* - Free the event with ghostty_key_event_free()
* - Note: You can also reuse the same key event multiple times by
* changing its properties.
* 4. Free the encoder with ghostty_key_encoder_free() when done
*
* ## Example
*
* @code{.c}
* #include <assert.h>
* #include <stdio.h>
* #include <ghostty/vt.h>
*
* int main() {
* // Create encoder
* GhosttyKeyEncoder encoder;
* GhosttyResult result = ghostty_key_encoder_new(NULL, &encoder);
* assert(result == GHOSTTY_SUCCESS);
*
* // Enable Kitty keyboard protocol with all features
* ghostty_key_encoder_setopt(encoder, GHOSTTY_KEY_ENCODER_OPT_KITTY_FLAGS,
* &(uint8_t){GHOSTTY_KITTY_KEY_ALL});
*
* // Create and configure key event for Ctrl+C press
* GhosttyKeyEvent event;
* result = ghostty_key_event_new(NULL, &event);
* assert(result == GHOSTTY_SUCCESS);
* ghostty_key_event_set_action(event, GHOSTTY_KEY_ACTION_PRESS);
* ghostty_key_event_set_key(event, GHOSTTY_KEY_C);
* ghostty_key_event_set_mods(event, GHOSTTY_MODS_CTRL);
*
* // Encode the key event
* char buf[128];
* size_t written = 0;
* result = ghostty_key_encoder_encode(encoder, event, buf, sizeof(buf), &written);
* assert(result == GHOSTTY_SUCCESS);
*
* // Use the encoded sequence (e.g., write to terminal)
* fwrite(buf, 1, written, stdout);
*
* // Cleanup
* ghostty_key_event_free(event);
* ghostty_key_encoder_free(encoder);
* return 0;
* }
* @endcode
*
* For a complete working example, see example/c-vt-key-encode in the
* repository.
