this adds a very simple bitcoind RPC client able to make a few queries
like the blockchain and network status. the daemon uses the client
to get the bitcoind status and sends a report through comms periodically.
there's also a little playground program which simply dumps a query
result to stderr. built on demand with "zig build btcrpc".

this greatly improves UX during shutdown: no need to guess at which
point it's ok to unplug the power cord.
the commit also includes a GUI playground. a sort of a fake daemon which
sends hardcoded messages to ngui. useful for manual debugging and trying
different UX scenarious.
the daemon now sends info about the system shutdown progress: a list of
important services which may require up to several minutes to stop such
as lnd lightning daemon and bitcoin core.
see next commit for how this info is displayed and used by the GUI.

this hides all LVGL info messages about UI interactions like events,
making the log output more useful during development.
it is still possible to increase verbosity to the original level using
the lvgl_loglevel build flag.
both nd and ngui now acquire semantic versioning recorded at the build
time. they also report the version at startup and -v flag.
this is useful for a release process and to avoid potential
compatibility issues in the future.
in a regular build flow, the version is taken from a git tag using the
following command:
git -C . describe --match 'v*.*.*' --tags --abbrev=8
in a non-standard scenario where git isn't available, the version can
be provided on the command line during build like so:
zig build -Dversion=1.2.3
if both git and command line supplied versions are available, they must
match.
functions declared in ui.h were actually used by ui.c, the opposite of
what such a header is expected to contain. these functions are defined
in zig code and declarations are better off in the same ui.c file.
this is just a quick clean up before porting some C code to zig.
the idea is for all zig code to use C LVGL only via this
new module lvgl.zig, all display and input driver/devices is handled
by drv.zig.
this makes C/zig nicely compartmentalized in just a handful places.
16px looks easier to read but IPv6 addresses don't fit in the wifi
settings panel anymore. need to find a better way how to display them or
change font.
