Update to version 0.13.3. Separately, fix several build issues. The
most significant problem was that the builds were non-reproducible,
since elements of documentation were auto-generated to a directory
structure with a random naming element, so no two PLISTs were the
same.
Also, it has a specific expectation it has the GNU ncurses version of
tic(1), given the output it requires. This would cause breakages in
NetBSD deployments that didn't happen to have ncurses installed from
pkgsrc already. (If ncurses was installed, this package would build
without it being noted as a dependency because the pkgsrc tools prefer
the pkgsrc installation paths first.) An alternate fix would be to
patch this package's custom Python code that calls tic(1) to work with
NetBSD's implementation, but I opted not to choose that because there
may be similar portability issues elsewhere. (E.g. looking at the man
page for tic[1] on Illumos, I see it doesn't even have an -o option
listed.)

macOS: Fix dragging kitty window tabs in traditional full screen mode causing crashes (#1296)
macOS: Ensure that when running from a bundle, the bundle kitty exe is preferred over any kitty in PATH (#1280)
macOS: Fix a regression that broke mapping of ctrl+tab (#1304)
Add a list of user-created kittens to the docs
Fix a regression that broke changing mouse wheel scroll direction with negative wheel_scroll_multiplier values in full-screen applications like vim (#1299)

Add a new option tab_title_template to control how tab titles are formatted. In particular the template can be used to display the tab number next to the title (#1223)
Report the current foreground processes as well as the original child process, when using kitty @ ls
Use the current working directory of the foreground process for the *_with_cwd actions that open a new window with the current working directory.

Fix setting background_opacity causing window margins/padding to be slightly different shade from background (#1221)
Handle keyboards with a "+" key (#1224)

Fix changing cursor_text_color via remote control not working (#1229)
Add an action to resize windows that can be mapped to shortcuts in kitty.conf (#1245)
Fix using the new_tab !neighbor action changing the order of the non-neighboring tabs (#1256)

Add an option scrollback_pager_history_size to tell kitty to store extended scrollback to use when viewing the scrollback buffer in a pager (#970)
Modify the kittens sub-system to allow creating custom kittens without any user interface. This is useful for creating more complex actions that can be bound to key presses in kitty.conf. See doc:kittens/custom. (#870)
Add a new nth_window action that can be used to go to the nth window and also previously active windows, using negative numbers. Similarly, goto_tab now accepts negative numbers to go to previously active tabs (#1040)
Allow hiding the tab bar completely, by setting tab_bar_style to hidden. (#1014)
Allow private use unicode characters to stretch over more than a single neighboring space (#1036)
