In a discussion with Raph Levien, the author of our compute renderer
implementation, it became clear to me that it's not at all certain that
complex strokes will ever be efficiently supported by a GPU renderer.
At the same time, the machinery for converting a complex stroke to a
GPU-friendly outline has a significant maintenance cost. Further, it is
surprising to users that complex strokes are significantly slower and
allocate memory.
This change removes support for complex strokes, leaving only
round-capped, round-joined strokes supported by the compute renderer.
The default renderer still converts all strokes to outline, but it also
caches the result.
This is an API change. The complex stroke conversion code has been moved
to the external gioui.org/x/stroke package, with a similar API.

The op.Save and Load methods exist to support the need for
transformation, clip, pointer area state to behave as stacks. For
example, layout needs to apply an offset to its children but not
subsequent operations.
Before this change, op.Save and Load were used to save and restore the
state:
ops := new(op.Ops)
// Save state.
state := op.Save(ops)
// Apply offset.
op.Offset(...).Add(ops)
// Draw with offset applied.
draw(ops)
// Restore state.
state.Load()
A drawback with the op.Save mechanism is that there is no direct
connection between the state change and the saving and loading of state.
This causes confusion as to when a Save/Load is needed and who is
responsible for performing them, which leads to subtle bugs and over-use
of Save/Loads.
This change gets rid of the general state stack and replaces it with
per-state stacks. There is now a stack for transformation, clip, pointer
areas, and they can only be restored by the code pushing state to them.
The example above now becomes:
ops := new(op.Ops)
// Push offset to the transformation stack.
stack := op.Offset(...).Push(ops)
// Draw with offset applied.
draw(ops)
// Restore state.
stack.Pop()
For convenience, transformation also be Add'ed if the stack operation is
not required.
Simple state such as the current material no longer has a way to be
restored; it is assumed the client of a PaintOp adds their desired
material operation before it.
API change: replace op.Save/Load with explicit Push/Pop scopes for
op.TransformOps, pointer.AreaOps, clip.Ops.
To ease porting, this change retains a version of op.Save/Load that
saves and restores the transformation and clip stacks. It also retains
an Add method for clip.Op.

There's no meaningful reason to have them separate. The intention was to
enable rendering concurrent with other processing, but that's gaining
framerate at the expense of input latency and complicating ImageOp
semantics.

The hash of the clipping paths that affect drawing operations are computed
and used to quickly determine that two operations are not equal, the
most likely outcome of a comparison.
However, for paths that are constructed once and cached computing the
hash at every frame is wasteful. This is especially true for text, which
is both cached and also among the largest paths in a frame.
This change moves the hashing to op/clip.Path construction time, and
stores the hash in the ops list so it won't be re-computed at every use.

The current renderer transforms and processes paths before sending them
to the GPU. It can compute bounds during processing.
The new renderer passes paths verbatim to the GPU, but needs the bounds
for constructing clip bounds.
This change computes the bounds during construction, so it is available
at use. As a bonus for storing the bounds with the path, path caches
(such as for storing text fragments) automatically reuse the bounds
calculations as well.

Before this change, the two renderers both had special case code for
approximating strokes they don't support natively. This change moves
that conversion to clip.Op.Add, for several reasons:
- The compute renderer no longer need fallback logic and caches for
strokes it doesn't support.
- The approximation logic is slow. Moving it to clip.Op.Add will not
speed it up, but will make the cost easier to spot in profiles. Until all
strokes are supported natively, users can use macros to cache
expensive strokes.
- Reduced garbage: Op.Add takes an op.Ops anyway, and can use that for
storing the approximated stroke outline.

There's an argument that rounded caps and joins are the simplest stroke,
in that it can be defined to cover all pixels within lineWidth distance
from the supporting path.
However, the more important reason is that the compute renderer natively
supports this stroke style (without dashes), and users that don't care
(much) about the particular stroke style should get the efficient
implementation. A good example is op/clip.Border that strokes a closed
path, where the StrokeCap is irrelevant.
This is a (subtle) API change. If you have code that relies on the
default values of clip.StrokeStyle you may want to set Cap and Join
explicitly. See the test changes for examples. On the other hand, you
will get much better performance from the default Cap and Join values
once the compute renderer becomes the default.
Disablethe TestPaintClippedBorder test; dashes round-capped,
round-joined strokes doesn't seem to work correctly.

Outline represents a clipping operations that clips all drawing outside
a closed path. Before this change, paths not closed we're patched up by
adding an implicit line from the endpoint to the beginning.
These fixups are inefficient for a rare case, but acceptable because the
old renderer post-processes all paths anyway. However, the new compute
renderer don't need post-processing in most cases, making fixups too
expensive.
Given that clipping to an open path is fundamentally undefined and that
implicit fixup with a closing line segment is merely a way to force the
clip to be well-defined, this change adds a panic to Outline for Paths
that are not closed.

It turns out restoring all operation state from the moment Defer
is executed is too much; for example, a right-click pop-up needs
the transformation, but not the current clip.
Change Defer to only restore the transformation, and reset all
other state.
Other combinations may be needed in future; we'll deal with them then,
possibly by exposing the load state mask.

This CL introduces 2 new path builders:
- Outline which takes a PathSpec to be outlined
- Stroke which takes a PathSpec and a stroke style, to stroke a path.
typically, code like this:
var p clip.Path
...
p.Outline().Add(o)
should be replaced with:
var p clip.Path
...
clip.Outline{Path: p.End()}.Op().Add(o)
similarly, stroking should be modified from:
var p clip.Path
...
p.Stroke(width, clip.StrokeStyle{...}).Add(o)
to:
var p clip.Path
...
clip.Stroke{Path: p.End(), Style: clip.StrokeStyle{Width:...}}.Op().Add(o)
here are tentative 'rf' scripts (see rsc.io/rf for more details):
```
ex {
import "gioui.org/op";
import "gioui.org/op/clip";
var p clip.Path;
var o *op.Ops;
p.Outline().Add(o) -> clip.Outline{Path:p.End()}.Op().Add(o);
}
ex {
import "gioui.org/op";
import "gioui.org/op/clip";
var o *op.Ops;
var p clip.Path;
var sty clip.StrokeStyle;
var width float32;
p.Stroke(width, sty).Add(o) -> \
clip.Stroke{ \
Path:p.End(), \
Style: clip.StrokeStyle{ \
Width: width, \

color.RGBA has two problems with regards to using it.
First the color values need to be premultiplied, whereas most APIs
have non-premultiplied values. This is mainly to preserve color components
with low alpha values.
Second there are two ways to premultiply with sRGB. One is to premultiply
after sRGB conversion, the other is before. This makes using the API more
confusing.
Using color.NRGBA in sRGB makes it align with CSS.e
