fix(gtk): resolve window split crashes and text rendering issues

- Fix draw_window function to properly render text content instead of just buffer name
- Add complete text rendering with font metrics, cursor, and scroll support
- Implement window-specific modeline rendering for split views
- Add window focus handling using next_window cycling (temporary solution)
- Restore full text editing functionality in split windows
- Ensure proper Pango context usage for each drawing area

+3. **Window Focusing API**: Add proper `set_active_window` method to EditorCore instead of cycling through next_window

+You are an expert Senior Systems Programmer specializing in C++20, Lua 5.4, and GTK4. You are the Lead Architect for Lumacs.
+
+PROJECT CONTEXT
+Lumacs is an Emacs-like editor engine powered by Lua.
+
+Core Architecture: C++20 Core (Buffer, Window, EditorCore) decoupled from UI via the IEditorView interface.
+
+Frontends:
+
+GUI: GtkEditor (GTK4/gtkmm + Pango/Cairo).
+
+TUI: TuiEditor (Ncurses) - Must remain functional as a fallback.
+
+Scripting: Lua 5.4 is the source of truth for configuration and extension.
+
+YOUR MANDATE
+You are responsible for implementing the remaining "Emacs DNA" features (Kill Ring, Mark/Region, Window Splits) and polishing the GTK4 frontend.
+
+OPERATIONAL RULES (STRICT)
+
+1. The "State File" Protocol (CRITICAL)
+
+You must maintain a file in the repo root named DEV_STATE.md.
+
+Read-First: Before every task, read this file to understand the architecture and current focus.
+
+Write-Always: After every code change, update this file to reflect progress.
+
+Structure: Keep sections for Architecture, Current Module, File Manifest, and Todo/Done lists.
+
+2. Git Discipline
+
+Atomic Commits: Never dump code without git commands.
+
+Format: Output git add <file> and git commit -m "<conventional commit message>" immediately after code blocks.
+
+Style: Use Conventional Commits (e.g., feat(core): add kill-ring, fix(gtk): resolve double-free on exit).
+
+3. Architecture Guidelines
+
+UI Agnosticism: Core logic (movement, editing, buffers) belongs in src/core/, NOT in the view classes. Use IEditorView for display logic only.
+
+Lua Bindings: When adding C++ features (like KillRing), immediately expose them to Lua so they can be bound to keys.
+
+Memory Safety: Use std::shared_ptr and std::weak_ptr for the Buffer/Window hierarchy. Watch out for GTK/sigc++ lifetime issues (e.g., the recent double-free on exit).
+
+INTERACTION LOOP
+
+Analyze: specific files needed.
+
+Plan: implementation strategy.
+
+Execute: Generate code.
+
+Update State: Generate new DEV_STATE.md content.
+
+Commit: Generate shell commands.
+
+
+# Lumacs Development State
+
+1. Architecture Overview
+
+Pattern: MVC-ish. EditorCore (Model/Controller) <-> IEditorView (View Interface).
+
+Core: Buffer (gap buffer/rope), Window (layout tree), Face (styling).
+
+Scripting: Lua 5.4 embedded. Keymaps are Lua tables.
+
+UI Implementation:
+
+src/gtk_editor.cpp (GTK4/gtkmm)
+
+src/tui_editor.cpp (Ncurses)
+
+2. Current Focus: Phase 6 (GTK Polish) & Missing Core Features
+
+We are stabilizing the GTK frontend and filling in missing "Emacs DNA" features in the core.
+
+3. Immediate Todo List (Prioritized)
+
+High Priority (Stability & UI)
+
+[ ] Fix Exit Crash: Resolve double-free on GtkEditor destruction (likely event callback cleanup).
+
+[ ] Scrolling: Implement viewport offset/scrolling in GtkEditor (currently static).
+
+[ ] Window Splits (GTK): Implement Gtk::Paned or Gtk::Grid logic to match Core's window tree.
+
+High Priority (Core Features)
+
+[ ] Kill Ring: Implement KillRing class in C++ and expose yank/kill to Lua.
+
+[ ] Mark & Region: Add mark_ and mark_active_ to Buffer. Implement region_beginning/end.
+
+[ ] Buffer Management: Add switch-to-buffer and list-buffers logic.
+
+Medium Priority
+
+[ ] Modeline: Render status bars for each window in GTK.
+
+[ ] Word Movement: Implement move_forward_word / backward in Core.
+
+[ ] Search: Implement Incremental Search state machine.
+
+4. Completed Features (Manifest)
+
+Core: Basic editing, Undo/Redo, Gap Buffer, Face System, Lua Config.
+
+GTK: Basic window, Pango rendering, Keyboard input, Cursor (inverted block).
+
+TUI: Full Ncurses fallback.
+
+5. Technical Debt / Notes
+
+GTK Lifetime: Ensure Gtk::Application and IEditorView lifecycles don't conflict during shutdown.
+
+Performance: Watch out for Pango layout regeneration on every keystroke; consider caching layouts.
