The length kind that asks for a part of what is left once the fixed
lengths are taken is called leftover: Len::leftover(2), Len::LEFTOVER,
Size::LEFTOVER, Len::leftover the field, and apply_leftover. It says
what it is where "rest" reads as "the remainder of the list" as often as
"the remaining space", and every agent who has touched this has reached
for a third word for it.
Locals called rest that meant a region or a widget are renamed with it,
since the word now names something else.

`dp` is coming, and then `abs` says which of the two it is not. The
component has always been a pixel count, so the name that admits it is
the one that leaves room for a second unit beside it.
Mechanical: the field on `Len` and `UiScalar`, their constructors,
`to_abs`/`get_abs`, the matching WGSL struct member and the locals
composing it. Field order and types are unchanged, so the `Pod` layout
the shader reads is the same bytes. `f32::abs` is untouched.

A widget's region is now held in the coordinates of the slot it draws in
rather than the window's, and `Painter::place` is how a container asks for a
slot: it draws a child it decides the box of and may decide again. Everything
under that slot is a fraction of its box, so placing the child a second time
is one entry to write whether it moved or changed length. A child drawn any
other way has no slot and shares its nearest ancestor's.
That is what keeps the chain short. `chain_cost` measured depth as the cost
-- free to 8, +42.6% at 16 -- and a slot per widget put a transcript's glyphs
past that for nothing, since almost every slot was zero. `Span`, `Aligned`
and `Scroll` are the containers that re-place a child after drawing it, and
`tests/layout.rs` pins that four widgets between a span and a leaf leave the
leaf's chain one deep.
`UiRegion::stretch`, `UiRegion::stretchable` and `UiScalar::stretch` are
gone. Nothing is inverted any more: a box that changed length is written to
its slot, and the descendants recompose against it in the shader. That also
retires the case the guard existed for, where a fixed length has no fraction
to recover -- `tests/layout.rs` now stretches a 40-tall row on its other
axis, which `stretchable` refused outright.
What still walks the CPU is deciding who must draw again, which no chain can
answer: `mark_resized` descends from the widget whose box changed and marks
anything whose own box changed length and whose drawing reads it. A part of
a box with no relative extent on an axis is a fixed length, and composing
into it leaves none either, so the walk stops where a length did not change
-- an 80-wide child in a widened row is not redrawn though it says `Redraw`.
`Span`, `Pad`, `Stack`, `Offset`, `Aligned`, `SetSize` and `LayerOffset` say
`Scale`: each places in fractions and offsets of its own box and none reads
the box's pixel length. `Scroll` and `MaxSize` do read pixels and stay
`Redraw`.
45 tests pass, five of them new. Render verification comes after the CPU
side, per the owner.

`Remap` existed to invert a composition, and a translation never needed
one: shifting a box shifts everything composed into it by the same
amount, because `lerp(s + d, e + d, t) == lerp(s, e, t) + d` on both
channels. That holds whether or not the box has a relative extent, so
the carry branch was answering a question it did not have to ask.
So the decision is made once, before the walk, and neither relocation
method branches. A translation is already one slot write. A change of
length calls `UiRegion::stretch`, which re-expresses each part at its
own fraction of the new box and needs `stretchable` -- a fixed length
holds its parts as offsets from its start and keeps no fraction to
stretch by.
`Remap`, `UiScalar::outside`, `UiSpan::outside` and `LerpUtil::lerp_inv`
are all gone with it. Nothing inverts a lerp any more: the one division
is done against a denominator `stretchable` already established is not
zero.
What it gives up is the per-axis carry, so a box that changed length on
one axis and not the other is redrawn where it used to be remapped.
Counted: six of `tabs`'s fourteen relocations and five of `text`'s
sixteen, and one extra redraw per frame on `replace_cost`'s 200 rows --
354,310,889 instructions against 354,272,387, which is noise.
Checked: fmt, clippy and 42 tests. `tabs` (with the image replay),
`view`, `minimal` and `text` all still render byte-identical to
`upstream/main`.
Small, and disjoint from #12 — this touches `task.rs`, `harness.rs` and `render_state.rs`, none of which #12 goes near.
`Tasks` held an `Arc<Window>` only to call `request_redraw` when a task finished, which made the task queue, and so `DefaultRsc`, impossible to build without a window. It now takes an `Arc<dyn WakeTaskQueue>`, and `Window` implements it.
Waking also moves from *the task ended* to *an update was sent*, which is when there is actually something for the host to apply. A task that keeps running after sending one no longer holds it until it finishes, and a task that sends none no longer asks for a frame nothing needs.
`iris::harness` is what that buys. `UiRenderState` already does layout, hit testing and primitive building with no surface, so a test can build a tree, run frames, move a pointer and read back where widgets landed. `tests/harness.rs` covers span layout, resize relayout, press routing, hover start and end, wheel scrolling with its clamp, and a task update reaching the tree. None of them could be written before, since the only way into layout was a window.
It does not draw. A claim about pixels still needs a real surface — I checked this one against the rig rather than asserting it: `examples/task` under headless sway, centre pixel `ff0000` before the click and `0000ff` after, so the windowed path still applies task updates under the new wake.
The only core change is `UiRenderState::output_size()`, so that a host reading back the size it set does not have to keep a second copy.
