- Static FreeType linking flow for all OS - Flow to build universal binaries for macOS (x86_64, aarch64) - Simplified CI workflow by removing FreeType branches from the build matrix Added 2 new scripts: 1. `buildSrc/scripts/vendor_freetype.sh` 2. `buildSrc/scripts/build.sh` The first script prepares FreeType for usage in the build process. The result of this script is used in the `GenerateLibs` task. Other ways of building with FreeType are removed. If it's impossible to build with FreeType, it is recommended to set `freetype=false`. The second script aggregates commands to build native binaries. It includes specific steps, such as creating a universal library for macOS and copying the result to the specific folder `/tmp/imgui/dst`. Script 1 can be used for local builds. Script 2 is primarily intended for use in CI.

Description
This PR revises the approach to supporting ARM64 architecture introduced in #223. Instead of building separate dylib files for different architectures, the CI will now compile a universal library that works on both x86_64 and ARM64 architectures.
Additionally, the integration process with the FreeType library has been reworked. FreeType is now enabled by default (the define IMGUI_ENABLE_FREETYPE is used during compilation). The library is compiled into the binding statically. This addresses a previous issue where Linux/macOS users experienced application crashes due to a missing library on their system.
As a result, the bin/freetype folder has been entirely removed due to its redundancy. In future releases, versions with the
-ftsuffix will no longer be provided. The library will always be released with FreeType included.On a smaller scale, the CI has been reworked and its actions updated. The build process should now be slightly faster overall.
