feat(macos): add .app bundle, native menu bar, Cocoa integration, and docs
Add macOS-specific support:
- .app bundle generation via meson (Info.plist, launcher binary, icns
generation, symlink-based app structure)
- Native menu bar with New Window, Copy, Paste, Quit via elm_win
main menu API, guarded by __APPLE__ ifdefs
- Cocoa reopen handler to create a new window when the Dock icon is
clicked with no visible windows
- Move window position (evas_object_move) before evas_object_show
so EFL respects the initial placement on macOS
- Add macOS build and install instructions to README

+## macOS
+
+On macOS, the build system produces a `Terminology.app` bundle that can be
+installed into `/Applications` or run directly from the build directory.
+
+### Building on macOS
+
+NLS (native language support) must be disabled because macOS ships a
+`libintl` that conflicts with the linker:
+
+```sh
+meson setup build -Dnls=false -Dtests=true
+ninja -C build
+```
+
+The `.app` bundle is generated at `build/data/macos/Terminology.app`.
+
+### Installing the .app bundle
+
+Copy the bundle to `/Applications` so that macOS registers the URL scheme
+and the Dock icon:
+
+```sh
+cp -R build/data/macos/Terminology.app /Applications/
+```
+
+After first launch, macOS will recognise the `terminology://` URL scheme
+automatically. You can verify with:
+
+```sh
+open "terminology://"
+```
+
+### Running tests
+
+```sh
+./build/src/bin/tytest all
+```
