`Stack` and `Pad` forced the near edge on every child. That override exists
so a container that reports a child's size and then hands it the box derived
from that report does not place its content twice -- and it is owed only
where the box really is the child's own answer.
`Stack` gives every child the box its sizing child defines. That box is
`box_of(child.size())`, so the sizing child has no room in it and needs the
override; every other child is handed a box that owes nothing to it, and
where it sits in one bigger than itself is its own business. With the
override it could not be aligned at all.
`Pad` reports its inner's size plus the padding, so where its box is that
answer the inset box is exactly the inner and alignment has nowhere to move
it. Where the box is bigger -- a share of a row, a rule over the pad -- the
slack belongs to the inner, and the override pinned it to a corner.
The `tabs` example is the visible case both ways: its counters asked for
`Align::RIGHT` inside a stack and sat at the left, and `text`'s narrow panel
filled a row it had asked to sit at the top of. Both match canonical `main`
again. Neither was noticed when `d3b0ebf` made alignment a property, and the
handoff's claim that `tabs` then "differs only in the widget count it prints
about itself" was wrong -- it was checked at `8220a78` and not re-checked
after the next commit.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 81 suite tests, 17 core unit tests, the release oracle
at 100 seeds and at 1000 seeds of depth 6, and all fifteen shrinker cases at
400 seeds of depth 5. `tabs`, `text` and `random` change exactly where a
child now honours its own alignment; `view` and `minimal` are unchanged.
`tabs` is still not `main`'s render: `.sized((100, 100)).center().width(
leftover(2))` on one widget no longer means a square centred in a two-share
box, because one widget carries one length per axis and `.width` overwrites
what `.sized` set. That one is an API question, not a bug, and is open.

`UiScalar` was `Len` without the `leftover` weight, which is the separation
canonical `main` already had as `Len` beside `LayoutLen` and this branch
collapsed. It is needed back for the queued clamp: a cap may not contain a
share, because a cap has to read the report a rule otherwise makes moot, and
a share puts the container's division into the same equation -- two
self-consistent assignments, which is the multiple-fixed-point failure
generated seed 13 punished for orthogonal sizing. `min(report, cap)` is not
a `LayoutLen` either: it is a sum of parts, and the smaller of two of them
is not one.
So `UiScalar` is `Len`, what was `Len` is `LayoutLen`, and the two say in
their docs which is which: a `Len` is pixels plus a fraction of a box -- a
position being the length from the box's start, which is why a span is two
of them -- and a `LayoutLen` is a `Len` plus a claim only a container
dividing its room can answer. `From<Len> for LayoutLen` is the one-way step
between them.
Names only; the shader's `UiScalar` is renamed with them. Checked: fmt,
clippy, 105 tests, and `tabs`, `minimal`, `view`, `text` and `random`
byte-identical at 1920x1200.

`Len` is `Px` beside `Rel` beside `Weight`, so the seam `4e28f10` left in
`Span` -- a float length added to a fixed-point cursor -- is gone, and the
sum a span compares against its box is exact.
`Weight` is its own scale, `Fixed<16>`, because a share of what is left over
is not a fraction of anything: a list divides its room by the total of them,
so the range has to hold a whole list's worth while the precision only has to
tell two weights apart. `Rel::ratio` turns two weights into a share on the
finer grid, which is what a span needs and what dividing them on their own
grid would round away.
`AxisAlign` holds a `Rel` rather than a float, which is what the layout was
reading out of it anyway. `Padding` and `Span::gap` hold `Px`, converted
where they are built instead of on every frame. `RegionAlign::rel` is gone;
its one caller wanted a position, and now builds one.
`Fixed` gains `from_num` for a number as it is written in source, `mul_int`
for a length repeated a whole number of times, and `ratio`.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 101 tests, 100 generated seeds in 86 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds, and all five examples byte-identical at
1920x1200 against `4e28f10`.
With the fuzzer comparing for equality rather than within 0.05 px, four of
the five cases now pass 100 seeds -- `resize-repaint` joins the other three.
`reorder` still fails one seed by one step, so the last of it is in what a
box is measured *in*: `px_len` and the window are still floats.

`UiScalar` is `Rel` beside `Px` rather than two floats, so composing a
position down a chain of boxes adds exactly and rounds only at the two
multiplies `within` makes. `UiSpan`, `UiRegion` and `UiVec2` follow it, the
hand-written `Hash` goes away with the bits it hashed, and `impl_op!` grows a
`same` form for a type whose fields are not the same kind of number.
`Len` is still floats, so the seam converts: `Px::from_f32` where a span adds
a child's length to its cursor, and `to_f32` where something outside layout
wants pixels. Those go when `Len` follows.
The GPU reads what the CPU wrote: the instance attributes are `Sint32x2` and
the shader decodes by `1/64` and `1/2^24`, both exact in `f32`, then composes
the move chain in floats as before. It has to agree with itself frame to
frame rather than with the CPU to the last bit.
Two things fell out of making the numbers exact.
`floor` at the rasteriser was picking the pixel below wherever a fraction
divided a window exactly. A fifth of 1920 is 383.99998 through a rounded
`Rel` -- and was 384.0 through an `f32` that happened to round up -- so five
tabs each lost their last column. `snap_floor` takes a coordinate within half
a step of a boundary to be on it, which is the same rule as everywhere else
here: decide where values do not land.
A widget measured on one layer and drawn again on another kept the first
layer, because `try_reuse` compared everything about a retained drawing
except which list it sits in. `Stack` does exactly that for its background,
so every panel's text went under its own background. It only worked before
because the two asks differed by a rounding and forced a redraw;
`tests/retained.rs` pins it now, and `ReuseOutcome` can say `WrongLayer`.
Checked: fmt, clippy, 100 tests, 100 generated seeds in 70 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds. `tabs`, `view` and `minimal` render
byte-identical at 1920x1200; `random` differs in 36 pixels by one level;
`text` differs where glyph origins moved onto the grid -- same positions,
same spacing, different subpixel coverage, checked at 6x against the old
render.
Measured on the way: with the fuzzer comparing for *equality* rather than
within 0.05 px, `resize`, `repaint` and `size-change` already pass 100 seeds.
`reorder` fails one seed by exactly one step, which is the `Len` seam above.

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.
