Bump to 0.2.0: SW/GLES paint parity, shared font resolution, FrameState refactor, docs and packaging fixes
Rendering parity (software ↔ GLES). The software backend now rounds glyph pen positions and image destinations to the nearest integer pixel, matching what the GLES backend already did; previously it truncated, so text and 1:1 images could land up to half a pixel off between the two backends and the bilinear sample read ~1 px softer than the source. Gradients and shadows are deliberately left unimplemented on the software backend, and the GLES multi-rect `glScissor` clip is left coarse on purpose: making it exact would need stencil bits the EGL config does not carry, or routing the partial-redraw path through the offscreen clip layer, which would break its `fill` / `clear_rects_transparent` scissor semantics. Adds software-backend pixel tests covering the snapping.
Font resolution unification. The system-font candidate chain, `find_font_opt` and `load_default_font_bytes` lived in two copies (`render/helpers` and `gles_render/helpers`) that had already diverged — one resolved through `find_font_opt`, the other inlined the candidate loop — and now live once in `system_fonts`. The two per-backend `OnceLock` default-font caches and `primary_handle` collapse into a single `system_fonts::default_handle`. Module docs and the `font_registry` caller are updated accordingly.
Shared image validation and rect inflation. `draw_image_data`'s dimension check and its one-line warning were byte-duplicated across both backends and are now `render::helpers::validate_rgba_dims`. The six manual symmetric `Rect`-inflate literals in the GLES primitives reuse the existing `Rect::expand`.
FrameState and DrawCtx de-duplication. The eleven `SurfaceState` fields the draw pass owns and threads through `DrawCtx` — `widget_rects`, the cursor / selection maps, the scroll state, `accessible_extras`, `prev_focused` / `prev_hovered` / `prev_pressed` — move into a `FrameState` sub-struct. The per-frame `build_draw_ctx` / `commit_draw_ctx` helpers can then borrow `&mut ss.frame`, disjoint from `ss.canvas` and `ss.pool`, so the four frame paths (software / GLES × full / partial) replace their duplicated `DrawCtx` construction and write-back with a single helper call each. A whole-`SurfaceState` borrow could not express this (partial borrows do not cross function boundaries), which is why the helpers take the sub-struct. `content_dirty` stays on `SurfaceState` — it is an invalidation flag, not frame state — and is reset at the call site.
rich_text tests. Adds the previously-missing `tests.rs` for the `RichText` widget: one hit rect per visual line a link spans (the widget's core invariant), the single-line and no-link cases, preferred-size growth with hard line breaks, and `map_msg` range preservation — all headless against a software `Canvas`, with line counts forced by `\n` so they do not depend on any system font's measured width.
Documentation. Fills the rustdoc gaps on the embedder-facing surface: `core::UiSurface` accessors, the `egl_context` public API, the `GlesCanvas` methods, `theme::typography` and `theme::error`, and the `RichText` / `Text` builders; adds a crate-level "Rendering backends" overview. `CHANGELOG.md` is added (0.2.0 / 0.1.0), and `docs/widgets.md` / `docs/cookbook.md` gain `rich_text`, `external`, and the CPU-draw / path-clip / externally-laid-out-tree recipes. `debian/changelog` gets the 0.2.0-1 entry. Private intra-doc links to `system_fonts` are demoted to code spans so `cargo doc` is warning-free.
Packaging. The `libltk-dev` registry crate shipped a `Cargo.toml` declaring the `lookup` bench while the `Makefile` install copied only `src/`, so Cargo refused to parse the manifest over a missing `benches/lookup.rs`; the install now ships `benches/` as well (the file alone satisfies the parse — criterion is a dev-dependency and is not resolved when the crate is consumed as a library). `Cargo.toml` is bumped to 0.2.0 to match the package version and the `ltk-0.2.0` registry directory.

# Changelog
All notable changes to `ltk` are documented here. The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/), and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
## [0.2.0] — 2026-06-25
This release adds the primitives an embedder needs to drive ltk as the render backend for a retained, externally-owned widget tree (for example projecting an Android view hierarchy onto an ltk surface). Each is kept general rather than tied to one consumer.
### Added
- **`Canvas::set_clip_path`** — anti-aliased clipping to an arbitrary vector path (`&[PathCmd]`) on both backends. The software backend installs a tiny-skia coverage mask; the GLES backend captures the clipped draws into an offscreen layer and composites them back through an anti-aliased coverage mask. Complements the existing rect clip (`set_clip_rects`) for shaped clips such as a circular avatar, a rounded card or a `VectorDrawable` mask. See `examples/clip_path.rs`.
- **`Canvas::fill_path` / `Canvas::stroke_path`** over a new `PathCmd` command list (`MoveTo` / `LineTo` / `QuadTo` / `CubicTo` / `Close`, in surface coordinates) — renders an arbitrary vector path, a `Path`, a `VectorDrawable` or a Lottie frame. The software backend rasterises directly with tiny-skia; the GLES backend rasterises into a tiny-skia pixmap and uploads it, so both backends share the same path rasteriser and stay at visual parity.
- **`Canvas::read_rgba_pixels`** — reads any canvas into tightly packed straight-alpha RGBA8 (top-left row first), on both the GLES and software backends (the software path un-premultiplies its pixmap). **`Canvas::is_software`** lets a caller branch on the backend (e.g. honour a real path clip on software but only a bounding rect on GLES).
- **`measure_text( text, size )`** (re-exported at the crate root) — measures one line with the default UI font and the system fallback chain, returning `(width, line_height)` in pixels without a live `Canvas`, for an embedder's measure pass that must match the renderer's metrics. Backed by a process-wide cached primary-font handle.
- **`Stack::push_placed`** — appends a child at an exact rect, bypassing alignment and intrinsic sizing, so a view tree whose geometry is computed elsewhere can be projected onto a Stack in paint order. **`Stack::push_placed_clipped`** additionally clips the child's subtree to a rect (Android's `clipChildren`): overflowing content is not painted.
- **`ExternalSource::Cpu`** and the **`External::cpu`** constructor — an immediate-mode CPU drawing closure invoked once per frame with the canvas and the widget's laid-out rect, working on both backends. Hosts a custom `View.onDraw` straight onto the ltk canvas without a GL texture round-trip, unlike the existing `Texture` source which only renders on GLES.
- **`RichText`** widget — wrapped paragraph text carrying a `Msg` per clickable link range; the layout pass emits one hit rect per link line so taps land on the link rather than the whole paragraph. The ltk side of an Android `Spanned` carrying `URLSpan` / `ClickableSpan`.
### Fixed
- GLES clip-layer composite no longer renders path-clipped content vertically flipped: the offscreen layer was sampled at the inverted screen Y. The software backend was unaffected.
- Gesture: the horizontal pager is driven only once the swipe axis locks horizontal. Previously the pre-lock lateral drift of a vertical gesture could arm the consumer's pager without a matching release event, which could freeze the surface until an unrelated gesture reset it.
- Software/GLES parity: the software backend now snaps glyph pen positions and image destinations to integer pixels (rounding to nearest), matching the GLES backend. Previously it truncated, so text and 1:1 images could land up to half a pixel off between backends and sample ~1 px softer.
### Changed
- Default theme launcher SVGs replaced with renderer-compatible versions.
