The line annotation as implemented in #5420 had two shortcomings:
* It required the height of virtual text lines to be known ahead time
* It checked for line anchors at every grapheme
The first problem made the API impractical to use in practice because
almost all virtual text needs to be softwrapped. For example inline
diagnostics should be softwrapped to avoid cutting off the diagnostic
message (as no scrolling is possible). While more complex virtual text
like side by side diffs must dynamically calculate the number of empty
lines two align two documents (which requires taking account both
softwrap and virtual text). To address this, the API has been
refactored to use a trait.
The second issue caused some performance overhead and unnecessarily
complicated the `DocumentFormatter`. It was addressed by only calling
the trait mentioned above at line breaks (instead of always). This
allows offers additional flexibility to annotations as it offers
the flexibility to align lines (needed for side by side diffs).
* rework positioning/rendering, enables softwrap/virtual text
This commit is a large rework of the core text positioning and
rendering code in helix to remove the assumption that on-screen
columns/lines correspond to text columns/lines.
A generic `DocFormatter` is introduced that positions graphemes on
and is used both for rendering and for movements/scrolling.
Both virtual text support (inline, grapheme overlay and multi-line)
and a capable softwrap implementation is included.
