This cascaded into a lot more work than expected. However, in general,
if one clones a `WidgetInstance` and shares it between two windows, it
should now work. Widget authors must ensure that when they cache
information, they do so with either a `WidgetCacheKey` or use a
`WindowLocal<T>` if per-window state is desired.
This is demonstrated in the debug-window example, where the counter of
open windows is next to a clone of the same button from the main window
that opens a new window.
While this was a workaround for a docs.rs issue (Px/Lp are not
linked), I decided having the shorter import path would look better in
the examples.
It probably wasn't necessary to update all of the references in the
internal code, but I decided it was worth the consistency.

There's some details to still figure out, which are in new issues:
- #109: When opening a window, no handle is returned that gives access to the
window from the opener. Technically this can all be wired up manually,
with exception of requeesting the window close.
- #107: How can a window close itself? Once we have a handle type, we still
need a mechanism to allow a button on a window request that the window
closes gracefully. The examples that currently close the window
call exit instad.
- Blur no longer expands the shadow geometry, but instead is clamped to
avoid overlapping drawing calls.
- Overlay now handles hit tests correctly with regards to the original
relative widget.
- Align was using an Into conversion that wasn't actually correct,
causing the contents to not actually get aligned in some situations.
- On Linux, `fm-match` is used to query for the default fonts.
- DynamicComponents now have their own trait and can now be specified
with a constant or dynamic.
- Roboto Flex is now always loaded when the feature is enabled.
Overriding the default sans serif font prefers the overridden value,
then roboto, then the result of fc-match/fontdb's default.
- Button now supports background colors being set on a transparent
button.
Debug printing widgets was quite verbose. While developing a widget, you
often want to see a full debug printout, but this feature assumes that
debug printing a WidgetInstance should show a summary of the widget, not
a full debug printout containing cached glyph information of every
label.
By default, summarize just calls Debug, but this extra layer allows
widgets to provide a more condensed summary and exclude details like
caches.
Originally, adding dbg!() around the theme example's UI yielded a
whopping 20,324 lines of text. The summary code only prints 3,858
lines.
Closes#60
Stepping in sliders is a compromise due to the flexibility of the
current slider implementation. I don't want to force types to implement
Add, and I don't like forcing types to require a Step (ie, what's the
appropriate value for f32 to specify as its next value?). Using a
percentage combined with lerp keeps the implementation fairly
straightfoward, although I remember experiencing this type of
configuration in another UI framework a long time ago and thinking it
was a little annoying to work with.
Ultimately, setting actual step boundaries can be done by customizing
the type that the slider is operating over. I feel like that's a much
more powerful design than I've experienced in previous frameworks, so
I'm hoping this percent step behavior is a reasonable compromise.
The issue was that my last set of changes were causing the animations to
restart, causing the animation to keep being extended to another 150ms.
I think the only way for this to work is to switch to an event
mechanism to notify widgets once they've been invalidated. This event
could include a parameter stating whether it was a direct invalidation
or an invalidation due to another widget in the hierarchy. Button
doesn't really care about the rest of the hierarchy, it only cares about
its own state, and the cache key was including too many changes.
