Commit https://gioui.org/commit/b331407e81456 added text layout and shaping
based on io.Reader and changed Editor to use it. Unfortunately, as ~inkeliz
discovered, caching of shapes were also lost.
~inkeliz suggested fix,
https://lists.sr.ht/~eliasnaur/gio-patches/patches/15059
adds caching of shapes to Editor to regain lost performance.
This change repairs the cache to work on io.Reader API, in hope that the
already complicated Editor won't need additional caching.
Before this change, text layouts were represented as a slice of (rune, advance)
pairs. Unfortunately, this representation doesn't lend itself to caching of
shaping results, so change the representation of a line of text to be a pair
of text and advances:
package text
type Layout {
Text string
Advances []fixed.Int26_6
}
The Text field can then be used in a cache key, assuming Advances is
consistent with it.
The end result is that the two shaper variants of text.Shaper is reduced to
just one, and the Len field field of text.Line is no longer needed.
The changed representation adds a bit of extra work to package opentype.
Cleaning that up is left as a future TODO.

This change adds optional password masking to the Editor. To enable
this feature, set the new Mask field to a non-zero rune. Every rune
in the Editor's contents will be replaced by the mask rune in the
visual display, except for newlines. The actual contents of the
editor can still be accessed with Len, Text, and SetText.
