v0.54.0

# Small feats + more

We have a good number of fixes and enhacements in this release. Note how many contributors helped with this release! It's exciting to see the Crush community grow. :rocket:

## Better init prompt

@Amolith made some nice improvements on the prompt to generate a `AGENTS.md` file for new projects.

## Custom Git ignore file support

If you happen to have a custom global ignore file for Git (`core.excludesfile`), Crush will now respect that when listing files. Thanks @mavaa for implementing this!

## Skills on `crush session`

`crush session show` and `crush session last` commands will now show a header with the all skills used by the session.

## LSP Auto-Start setting

Setting `options.auto_lsp` to `false` on your config was supposed to prevent LSP servers from booting automatically, unless you had manually configured them. There was a bug with this setting, but @BrunoKrugel helped us by fixing it.

## UI fix for non-image models

@huaiyuWangh contributed with this fix. If the model you're using doesn't support images, Crush will now hide the help items in the bottom with the keybinding to attach images.

## No more `.crush/.gitignore` on your `git diff`

We recently changed the content of this file to not ignore `.crush/skills/*` by default, but a small annoying side-effect made that file itself visible by Git. We're now _also_ ignoring the `.crush/.gitignore` file itself again.

Keep crushing!
Charm :cupid:

<summary>Verifying the artifacts</summary>

First, download the [`checksums.txt` file](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.54.0/checksums.txt) and the [`checksums.txt.sigstore.json` file](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.54.0/checksums.txt.sigstore.json) files, for example, with `wget`:

```bash
wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.54.0/checksums.txt'
wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.54.0/checksums.txt.sigstore.json'
```

Then, verify it using [`cosign`](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign):

```bash
cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate-identity 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/meta/.github/workflows/goreleaser.yml@refs/heads/main' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com' \
  --bundle 'checksums.txt.sigstore.json' \
  ./checksums.txt
```

If the output is `Verified OK`, you can safely use it to verify the checksums of other artifacts you downloaded from the release using `sha256sum`:

```bash
sha256sum --ignore-missing -c checksums.txt
```

Done! You artifacts are now verified!
