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.

The ability to invoke other operation lists belongs in the new CallOp.
While we're here, make MacroOp.Add use a pointer receiver to match the
other methods.

We'd like to improve the API of Flex, Stack and similar layouts
that use MacroOps internall. Unfortunately, the
func (m MacroOp) Add(o *Ops)
method causes the MacroOp to be allocated on the heap, ruining the
nice garbage-free property of layouts.
Fortunately, layouts don't need the feature that caused the heap
allocation: invoking operation lists different than the current.
CallOp separates the invoke-different-list semantic from MacroOp,
in preparation for removing the feature from MacroOp.

Assign (per-frame) unique ids to each MacroOp and StackOp operations
and ensure that the pairwise Push/Pop and Record/End match.
In a follow-up change the Flex and Stack layouts will rely on those
checks to avoid being overlapped.

By returning the allocated data buffer, Ops can become an interface
in a future change without forcing operations to allocate.

Instead of adding an implicit ClipOp, return a ClipOp ready to use, freeing the
caller from recording a macro.

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.
