plugins: Improve error handling on plugin version mismatch (#1838)
* server/tab: Don't panic in `Pane::render`
and do not crash the application on failure to receive a render update
from plugins any longer. Instead, will print a simple string with a hint
to check the application logs, where a more thorough error indication
can be found.
* utils/errors: re-export `anyhow::Error`
to create ad-hoc errors with custom error types, without having to wrap
them into a `context()` before to turn the into anyhow errors.
* plugins: Check plugin version on startup
and terminate execution with a descriptive error message in case the
plugin version is incompatible with the version of zellij being run.
* server/wasm_vm: Add plugin path in version error
so the user knows which plugin to look at in case they're using custom
plugins.
* server/wasm_vm: Check plugin version for equality
Previously we would accept cases where the plugin version was newer than
the zellij version, which doesn't make a lot of sense.
* server/wasm_vm: Prettier error handling
in call to `wasmer::Function::call` in case a plugin version mismatch
can occur.
* tile: Install custom panic handler
that will print the panic message to a plugins stdout and then call a
panic handler on the host that turns it into a real application-level
panic.
* tile: Catch errors in event deserialization
and turn them into proper panics. These errors are symptomatic of an
uncaught plugin version mismatch, for example when developing from main
and compiling zellij/the plugins from source. Normal users should never
get to see this error.
* utils/errors: Improve output in `to_stdout`
for anyhow errors. The default anyhow error formatting of `{:?}` is
already very good, and we just made it worse by trying to invent our own
formatting.
* tile: Reword plugin mismatch error message
* zellij: Apply rustfmt
* changelog: Add PR #1838
Improve error handling on plugin version mismatch.
* server/wasm_vm: Rephrase error in passive voice
