WIP: a stack does not take its sizing child's fraction twice

Every child gets the whole of the stack's box rather than `box_of(size)`,
and `widget_at` does not resolve a rule into a box already chosen from it.
Fixes half a row becoming a quarter, which no oracle can see because warm
and cold shrink alike. Pinned by
`a_stack_sized_by_a_child_does_not_take_that_childs_fraction_twice`.

Not landed. Seed 1091 at depth 4, `shuffle-swap-for-three`, disagrees by
three steps of the grid -- warm 1053.9971 against cold 1054 -- where the
oracle tolerates two. Not a structural divergence: `box_of` was also making
a child's placement exact, by handing it a box of exactly the length it
asked for, and giving it the whole box instead puts a rounding back at each
nesting level. Two nested stacks is three steps. Widening AGREE_STEPS is
not the answer; finding the composition that went from exact to rounded is.

Everything else is green: suite, shrinker at 400 seeds of depth 5, oracle at
1000 seeds of depth 6, and the rest of 2000 seeds at depth 4.

Also carries examples/text.rs's top panel taking the full width.

-transforms on a move entry (scale + rotation)
-    an entry is a translation today; composing through one scales the rel
-    part and passes px through untouched, so fixed-size content and glyphs
-    do not follow a shortened entry
-    want a real transform per entry, resolved in resolve_move the way the
-    translation already is, so a whole subtree transforms with one buffer
-    write and no redraw
-    wanted for compose-style stretch at the end of a scroll area, and for
-    rotation generally
-
-a prepare stage on Event, so Data has no placeholder field
-    run_sensors builds one CursorData per widget and has to put something in
-    `sense` before anything knows which sense matched, so it writes
-    CursorSense::Hovering and says in place that it means nothing;
-    should_run then clones the whole thing to overwrite that one field
-    the state is representable only because the type lets the caller say it:
-    what the caller supplies and what matching adds are two different things
-    wearing one struct
-    the awkward part is doing it without the generics getting annoying --
-    Data<'a> is already a GAT with a default, and splitting it in two adds
-    another associated type to every Event impl for the sake of one field
