tidely a60addb9a9 gpui_macos: Migrate PlatformWindow::prompt to objc2 on MacOS (#59572)
# Objective

Rust 1.96 emits a warning when compiling the `block` crate, that it will
no longer compile past some future version of Rust. The `block` crate
provides `ConcreteBlock` and `RcBlock`, which are stack- and heap-based
functions often passed as callbacks to MacOS. The old `objc` crate
family is deprecated and no longer maintained.

The goal of the PR is to replace one call to `block::ConcreteBlock` by
migrating a standalone portion of code to the objc2 crate family. A full
migration to `objc2` by Zed has been long on the horizon (#22408)

Additional benefits: The new code is completely typed, uses automatic
memory management, and reduces lines of unsafe Rust from 50+ to 1. The
lingering unsafe converts a raw pointer stored by `self` to the
respective `objc2` type, since the rest of the window implementation
does not use the new crates yet.

## Solution

Migrate `PlatformWindow::prompt`'s MacOS implementation to `objc2`.

## Testing

Direct platform code is quite fragile and hard to test, however you can
exercise the codepath by running the following `gpui` example and
clicking on the prompt buttons.

```sh
cargo run -p gpui --example window
```

I've also built Zed with these changes and tried codepaths which
activate prompts, such as deleting a file.

Licensing

Zed source code is licensed primarily under GPL-3.0-or-later, with Apache-2.0 components where marked.

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
