The funcs replace stack.Push and macro.Record, which become private.
This makes stack and macro faster to write, in particular for stacks
where you can just write the following line to save and restore the
state :
defer op.Push(ops).Pop()
This usage requires Push to return a pointer (since Pop has a pointer
receiver), or else the code doesn't compile.
For consistancy, I tried to do the same for op.Record, but this implied
to turn all the MacroOp fields into pointers, and this caused some
panics. As a result, op.Record doesn't return a pointer.
An other side effect pointed by Larry Clapp: StackOp and MacroOp are not
re-usable any more, you have to allocate a new one for each usage, using
the described funcs above.

Change the definition of Widget from the implicit
type Widget func()
to the explicit functional
type Widget func(gtx layout.Context) layout.Dimensions
The advantages are numerous:
- Clearer connection between the incoming context and the output dimensions.
- Returning the Dimensions are impossible to omit.
- Contexts passed by value, so its fields can be exported
and freely mutated by the program.
The only disadvantage is the longer function literals and the many "returns".
What tipped the scales in favour of the explicit Widget variant is that type
aliases can dramatically shorten the literals:
type (
C = layout.Context
D = layout.Dimensions
)
widget := func(gtx C) D {
...
}
Note that the aliases are not part of the Gio API and it is up to each user
whether they want to use them.
Finally the Go proposal for lightweight function literals,
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/21498, may remove the disadvantage
completely in future.
Context becomes a plain struct with only public fields, and its Reset is
replaced by a NewContext convenience constructor.

Instead of
type Contraints struct {
Width, Height Constraint
}
use
type Constraints struct {
Min, Max image.Point
}
which leads to simpler use. For example, the Min method is trivally replaced by
the field, and the RigidConstraints constructor is no longer a net win.
API Change. Rewrites:
gofmt -r 'gtx.Constraints.Min() -> gtx.Constraints.Min'
gofmt -r 'gtx.Constraints.Width.Min -> gtx.Constraints.Min.X'
gofmt -r 'gtx.Constraints.Height.Min -> gtx.Constraints.Min.Y'
gofmt -r 'gtx.Constraints.Height.Max -> gtx.Constraints.Max.Y'
gofmt -r 'gtx.Constraints.Width.Max -> gtx.Constraints.Max.X'

There is nothing theme-specific about displaying images and icons,
so move the types from the material package to the generic widget
package.

Package ui is now only about units except for the Config.Now method.
Remove Now and rename Config to Converter. Add layout.Config to
replace the old ui.Config.
