🐧 Add Experimental Linux Build Support
This PR implements Linux build support for ArcGameEngine, enabling compilation on Linux systems while maintaining Windows as the primary development platform.
🔧 Technical Fixes
GLFW X11 Platform Issues:
Fixed missing setWindowTitleBar function pointer in X11 platform structure initialization
Added _glfwSetWindowTitlebarX11 wrapper function to maintain platform API consistency
Added proper function declaration in x11_platform.h
Resolved function pointer type mismatches causing compilation errors
JoltPhysics Type Definitions:
Added missing #include to JoltPhysics Core.h
Fixes undefined uint32_t type errors when compiling with Clang 18.1.3
📚 Documentation Updates
README Enhancements:
Added comprehensive Linux build section with clear experimental status
Documented dependency installation instructions for Ubuntu/Debian systems
Provided step-by-step build commands using Premake5 + Make
Updated platform badge to reflect Windows (Primary) | Linux (Experimental)
Added maintenance disclaimer explaining ongoing support requirements
✅ Build Verification
Successfully Tested On:
Ubuntu/Debian with Clang 18.1.3
Dependencies: build-essential, clang, libc++-dev, libstdc++-14-dev
All vendor libraries compile without errors (Box2D, GLFW, JoltPhysics, ImGui, etc.)
Arc Engine core library builds successfully
Arc-Editor executable generates correctly
