Introduce a cross-platform platform layer and port scaffolding for macOS and Linux. CMakeLists.txt refactored to select platform sources, set executable type per OS, and use CEF helper macros for runtime deployment. Add platform/types.h, startup/paths/browser_host APIs and implementations for Windows, macOS, and Linux (many are stubs for mac/linux). Refactor app entry and lifetime to use nebula::platform::AppStartup (app/main, run.{h,cpp}), move window/browser host logic into platform/browser_host.*, and update NebulaController to use platform APIs (native handles, sizing, visibility, cache-busting token, etc.). Add README and detailed docs/cross-platform.md describing build layout and porting status.
