iris afbc2ad132 Cap what the transcript draws, and let a LazySpan clip itself
Four things Iris asked for on 2026-09-08.

**A LazySpan no longer cares about masks.** It asserted that something
around it had called `.masked()` and refused to draw otherwise, which is
why a plain full-screen list -- the benchmark, any simple app -- panicked.
It cared only because it draws a row straddling an edge in full and relied
on somebody else to cut off the overhang; it clips itself to the box it
was offered now. Strictly stronger than the assert, which a mask *larger*
than the list's box satisfied while letting the overhang through anyway --
the fault it was written for. The transcript's `.masked()` wrapper goes
with it, and `Painter::is_masked` with that.

**Everything on the transcript screen is capped.** One rule in one place,
`client_core::text_cap`, mirrored as `TextCap.kt` with the same numbers so
a bench comparing the apps compares renderers rather than policies:

    a tool call's input    80 lines or 4 KiB   -> "Show all N lines"
    a tool call's output   80 lines or 4 KiB   -> (already was, in iris)
    a message             200 lines or 16 KiB  -> "Show all N lines"

The input is what the edit-card report needed: an Edit's old_string and
new_string arrive whole and are routinely the biggest text on screen.
Messages are capped in both apps, user and agent alike.

Three rules that took a screenshot to get right. A message is cut on a
block boundary, never mid-block -- cut to its own opening line a fence
renders as an empty panel, which reads as a fault rather than as a cap --
except a message that is one enormous block, which is truncated, since
dropping it would leave the row blank. A reply still streaming is never
capped. And the input's two blocks share one "Show all", while input and
output have their own.

**Compose stops wrapping raw text**, per Iris's call: a tool's leftover
input fields and its output pan sideways like the command already did.

`on_tap` and hold-the-edge move to `transcript-ui/src/tap.rs`, since a
message's "Show all" needs exactly what a tool card's tap already had.
