WIP: Pad outside, Inset inside, and a report read raw

`Pad` moves its child's box in rather than shrinking it, `Inset` is the old
behaviour under a new name, and `in_parent_frame`'s composition and the
`reports_of` argument are gone -- a report comes up raw and the parent says
what it is a fraction of, which `Inset` does for itself.

Not landed. Everything passes except the new `Inset` test: a child declaring
`rel(0.5)` under an inset comes out 47.5 px wide of the 190 inside rather
than 95, and I have not accounted for where the second halving is. The
`Pad` half is green on its own -- the three tests that changed to `.inset()`
were using padding as scaffolding -- but landing it without a working
`Inset` would break every `.pad()` that meant inset.
