This encompasses a handful of problems with column counting.
The Terminal project didn't set a fallback column counter. Oops. I've fixed this to use the `DxEngine` as the fallback.
The `DxEngine` didn't implement its fallback method. Oops. I've fixed this to use the `CustomTextLayout` to figure out the advances based on the same font and fallback pattern as the real final layout, just without "rounding" it into cells yet.
- `CustomTextLayout` has been updated to move the advance-correction into a separate phase from glyph shaping. Previously, we corrected the advances to nice round cell counts during shaping, which is fine for drawing, but hard for column count analysis.
- Now that there are separate phases, an `Analyze` method was added to the `CustomTextLayout` which just performs the text analysis steps and the glyph shaping, but no advance correction to column boundaries nor actual drawing.
I've taken the caching code that I was working on to improve chafa, and I've brought it into this. Now that we're doing a lot of fallback and heavy lifting in terms of analysis via the layout, we should cache the results until the font changes.
I've adjusted how column counting is done overall. It's always been in these phases:
1. We used a quick-lookup of ranges of characters we knew to rapidly decide `Narrow`, `Wide` or `Invalid` (a.k.a. "I dunno")
2. If it was `Invalid`, we consulted a table based off of the Unicode standard that has either `Narrow`, `Wide`, or `Ambiguous` as a result.
3. If it's still `Ambiguous`, we consult a render engine fallback (usually GDI or now DX) to see how many columns it would take.
4. If we still don't know, then it's `Wide` to be safe.
- I've added an additional flow here. The quick-lookup can now return `Ambiguous` off the bat for some glyph characters in the x2000-x3000 range that used to just be simple shapes but have been retroactively recategorized as emoji and are frequently now using full width color glyphs.
- This new state causes the lookup to go immediately to the render engine if it is available instead of consulting the Unicode standard table first because the half/fullwidth table doesn't appear to have been updated for this nuance to reclass these characters as ambiguous, but we'd like to keep that table as a "generated from the spec" sort of table and keep our exceptions in the "quick lookup" function.
I have confirmed the following things "just work" now:
- The windows logo flag from the demo. (⚫⚪💖✅🌌😊)
- The dotted chart on the side of crossterm demo (•)
- The powerline characters that make arrows with the Consolas patched font (██)
- An accented é
- The warning and checkmark symbols appearing same size as the X. (✔⚠🔥)
