This PR introduces a completely rewritten text layout engine which is simpler and more powerful. It allows mixing different text styles (heading, body, etc) and formats (color, underlining, strikethrough, …) in the same layout pass, and baked into the same `Galley`.
This opens up the door to having a syntax-highlighed code editor, or a WYSIWYG markdown editor.
One major change is the color is now baked in at layout time. However, many widgets changes text color on hovered. But we need to do the text layout before we know if it is hovered. Therefor the painter has an option to override the text color of a galley.
## Performance
Text layout alone is about 20% slower, but a lot of that is because more tessellation is done upfront. Text tessellation is now a lot faster, but text layout + tessellation still lands at a net loss of 5-10% in performance. There are however a few tricks to speed it up (like using `smallvec`) which I am saving for later. Text layout is also cached, meaning that in most cases (when all text isn't changing each frame) text tessellation is actually more important (and that's more than 2x faster!).
Sadly, the actual text cache lookup is significantly slower (300ns -> 600ns). That's because the `TextLayoutJob` is a lot bigger (it has more options, like underlining, fonts etc), so it is slower to hash and compare. I have an idea how to speed this up, but I need to do some other work before I can implement that.
All in all, the performance impact on `demo_with_tesselate__realistic` is about 5-6% in the red. Not great; not terrible. The benefits are worth it, but I also think with some work I can get that down significantly, hopefully down to the old levels.
* added new line styles
* update changelog
* fix#524
Add missing functions to `HLine` and `VLine`
* add functions for creating points and dashes from a line
* apply suggestions
* clippy fix
* address comments
* Replace `impl Into<String>` with `impl ToString`
This is something I ran into today. Types that implement
`std::fmt::Display` cannot be passed to functions that take `impl
Into<String>`. You have to call `display_thing.to_string()`. Its a small
thing but would be fixed by instead taking `impl ToString`.
Afaik `impl ToString` is a superset of `impl Into<String>`, unless users
manually implement `Into<String> for T` (or `From<T> for String`) for
their own types. However I think its more common to implement `Display`
as that works with `println` and friends. The main difference is that
`Display::fmt` can return errors but thats also quite rare in my
experience.
I did some testing in a [playground] and seems to work.
