The unit.Value is a struct and thus more inconvenient to use than its
underlying float32 type. In addition, most uses don't need a general
value, but rather a specific unit given by the context. This change
replaces unit.Value with two float32 units, Dp and Sp. It also changes
variables and parameters of unit.Value to a specific unit type matching
the context. That is, unit.Dp everywhere except for text sizes which are
in Sp.
Switching to typed float32s has multiple advantages
- They can be constants:
const touchSlop = unit.Dp(16)
- Casting untyped constants is no longer necessary:
insets := layout.UniformInset(16)
- Calculation with values is natural:
func (s ScrollbarStyle) Width() unit.Dp {
return s.Indicator.MinorWidth + s.Track.MinorPadding + s.Track.MinorPadding
}
The main API change is that calls to gtx.Px must be replaced with either
gtx.Dp or gtx.Sp depending on the unit.

Remove padding from the sides of the Slider to align them with
other components.
However, since sliders still need to be used with fingers try to
enforce a minimum finger height, if there is sufficient room.
The sides don't need similar treatment since after grabbing it's
possible to move the finger beyond the touch area, without losing
interaction.
To not enforce finger size, the theme can be adjusted:
theme.FingerSize = unit.Px(0)

This introduces a new material.Palette type that captures the color information
necessary to render a widget. This type is embedded in the material.Theme to
make it easier to swap to a different palette for part of the UI by reassinging
the Palette field.

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

A slice of FontFace pairs are simpler, and thread safe in case a client
wants to append or modify the font collection.

Before this change, package font implemented a global font registry,
with the usual problems of package global state.
This change deletes the global registry and introduces the text.Collection
type for representing a list of fonts and their faces. Collection exports
Lookup that finds the closest match and its face.
The existing FontRegistry is renamed to Cache to reflect its new limited
functionality: a cache of shapes and measurements on top of a Collection.
Then, material.NewTheme is changed to take a Collection and initialize
a Cache.
Updates gio#19 because multiple windows require a separate (writable) Cache per
window, while (read-only) Collections may be shared.

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.
