ShapedLines are never wrapped, whereas WrappedLines are optionally
wrapped if they are associated with a wrap width. Originally, when
rewriting GPUI, I tried to combine everything because wrapping is
inherently optional for the Text element, but we have a bunch of APIs
that don't make sense on a line that may wrap, so we need a distinct
type for that case.
This is a precursor to implementing clickable links in markdown. I
noticed multiple places where we were confused about whether or not the
line was wrapped so this felt important.
Release Notes:
- N/A

### Summary
This PR fixes a bug that @as-cii and @osiewicz saw when the on-disk
contents of files changed due to running `git checkout` at the command
line. It caused a buffer's contents to diverge from the file's on disk
contents, but the buffer to show an *unmodified* status.
I've also introduced new APIs on gpui's deterministic executor, which
make it possible to write a test that reliably triggered the bug.
### Details
The bug is triggered by the following sequence of events:
1. A buffer's file changes on disk while the buffer is *unmodified*
2. Zed reloads the new content of the file
3. Before updating the buffer itself, Zed computes a *diff* between the
buffer's current contents, and the newly-loaded contents
4. While this diff is being computed, one of two things happens:
1. the buffer changes on-disk *again*.
2. the user edits the buffer, but undoes the edit, so that the buffer
returns to an unmodified state
The bug itself was caused by a few things:
* The buffer diffing algorithm is pretty slow, because we perform a
character-wise diff
* We previously allowed multiple reload tasks to run concurrently
* When discarding an out-of-date diff, we failed to update parts of the
buffer's state (`saved_fingerprint`) which allow us to recognize that
the buffer's content differs from the file.
It was also difficult to reproduce the problem in tests, because under
deterministic execution, because it was extremely unlikely for other
tasks to make progress *after* a file had been reloaded, but *before*
the disk task has resolved. To help with testing, I introduced a pair of
executor APIs:
`spawn_labeled`, - for spawning a background task with a given *label*
`deprioritize_task` - for forcing tasks with a given label to run
*after* all other concurrent tasks.
I also made the `Model::next_event` test helper method more useful, in
that it no longer runs *until* parked in order to wait for the next
event to occur. It just steps the executor one poll at a time until the
model emits an event.
Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug that caused buffers to report incorrect modified/conflict
status when their buffers changed on disk multiple times in rapid
succession.
Initially, we imagined registering keyboard handlers in the initialize
phase so we would understand the relationships between focus handles
during the layout pass, which would allow us to assign assign `focus_in`
styles that impact layout.
However, we soon realized that many elements aren't created until paint
time anyway, such as within the uniform list. Since it's impossible to
know prior to paint whether an element contains the focused element, it
makes more sense to eliminate the `focus_in` styling helper.
Release Notes:
- N/A

* Fixes for focus when closing the last item in a pane
