A widget is asked in two boxes rather than one. Its frame is what a fraction
it declares or reports is a fraction of, and it passes through a span, a
stack and a scroll unchanged, so `rel(0.5)` is half the same area however
many containers sit between: a frame is narrowed only by what is decided
above the widget -- a declared length, the root. Its extent is where the
drawing goes, given as a `Place` per axis: a part of the parent's own box,
measured in frame lengths from where that box starts, which the child either
fills or has its answer placed inside.
What that buys is that nothing under a container depends on where the
container sits. A container reads `extent_len` for the length it divides and
nothing about the start, so moving it re-places its children by re-adding
that start and draws nobody again; and a fraction is resolved once, against
the frame, rather than once per box it is composed through -- a stack sized
by a child that reports `rel(0.5)` no longer takes half of half.
`Place` replaces `DrawRegion`, `ExtentPlacement`, `widget_within`,
`measure_len`, `region()`, `placement()` and `box_of`. Primitives and masks
are written in the widget's own box's coordinates alone, so the drawing has
one reference rather than two. The placement pin goes with them: reading the
extent's length pins that length symbolically, and pins compose only where a
child's box is its parent's own.
Placing an answer waits for the end of the parent's draw or for the next ask
of that child in it, so a span child is one drawing and one move rather than
two moves.
`Pad` is transparent: its padding goes around what it pads and its child
keeps the outer frame, which is where `Outset` was going anyway. A fraction
under a pad is now a fraction of the frame rather than of the inset box.
Checked: fmt, clippy with -D warnings, 109 suite tests and 20 core tests in
debug, the 11 generated cases, and the shrinker at 400 trees of depth 5 over
all fifteen cases -- which still finds seed 108 under `reorder`, where a
wrapping text measured in one box and drawn in another settles differently
warm than cold. `redraw` therefore keeps the baseline's deferral for a box
that is not as long as the one the widget was measured in; the plan's step
6 is not done, and the next commit message or the handoff says why.
`Scroll` reports `LEFTOVER` on both axes because it clips its content to its
box: it can neither take less of one nor honestly ask for more. `Masked` is
the other widget that clips and was passing its inner's size up, so a mask
over something taller than its box asked to be placed at the length it had
just cut off. It reports its box now, for the same reason.
The `debug_assert` the handoff has been asking for is the one that would have
caught both, narrowed to what is actually true: a widget that set a mask this
draw has to report inside the box it drew in. Reported as "does not exceed
the box" it fires on ordinary overflow instead -- measured, a hundred fuzzer
trees produce thousands of them, every one a text too tall for the box it was
offered, which is what a text is meant to say.
`tests/cases/scroll.rs` has a clipping widget that reports its content, to
show the assertion catches it.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 104 tests, all five shrinker cases at 300 seeds, 100
generated seeds, five examples byte-identical at 1920x1200.

Eleven `tests/*.rs` were eleven binaries, each linking the whole graph --
`wgpu` and all -- to run a handful of cases. They are modules of one target
now, under `tests/cases/`, and `cargo test --test suite layout::` still picks
one out. The fuzzers and the `*_cost` measurements stay their own targets:
they are run on their own and want to be selectable without building the
rest.
`profile.test` takes `debug = "line-tables-only"`, which is what a backtrace
here actually reads; the type and variable information was the bulk of what
the linker was writing.
Measured on this machine, rebuilding `iris`'s test targets after a change to
the crate: 14.3 s before, 9.8 s with one target, 7.7 s with both. `target/`
went from 45 GB to 13 GB. The suite still passes 102 tests, and the binary
still carries `.debug_line`.
