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.
