This is a bit of a readability improvement IMHO; I often find myself
confused when dealing when dimension pairs, as there's no easy way to
jump to the implementation of a dimension for tuples to remind myself
for the n-th time how exactly that impl works. Now it should be possible
to jump directly to that impl.
Another bonus is that Dimension supports 3-ary tuples as well - by using
a () as a default value of a 3rd dimension.

This gets rid of the need to pass context to all cursor functions. In
practice context is always immutable when interacting with cursors.
A nicety of this is in the follow-up PR we will be able to implement
Iterator for all Cursors/filter cursors (hell, we may be able to get rid
of filter cursor altogether, as it is just a custom `filter` impl on
iterator trait).

Follow up to #31836
After enabling rounding in the Taffy layout engine, we frequently run
into cases where the bounds produced by Taffy and ours slightly differ
after 5 or more decimal places. This leads to cases where containers
become scrollable for less than 0.0000x Pixels. In case this happens for
e.g. hover popovers, we render a scrollbar due to the container being
technically scrollable, even though the scroll amount here will in
practice never be visible.
This change fixes this by rounding the `scroll_max` by which we clamp
the current scroll position to two decimal places. We don't benefit from
the additional floating point precision here at all and it stops such
containers from becoming scrollable altogether. Furthermore, we now
store the `scroll_max` instead of the `padded_content_size` as the
former gives a much better idea on whether the corresponding container
is scrollable or not.

- in first version editor scrolls like 1.5 pages, but agent panel only
scrolls half a page.
- in second version, agent panel also scrolls like 1.5 pages.
Release Notes:
- Fixed skipping of some scroll events in the non-uniform list UI element, which fixes slow scrolling of the agent panel.
tl;dr: This adds `.block_mouse_except_scroll()` which should typically
be used instead of `.occlude()` for cases when the mouse shouldn't
interact with elements drawn below an element. The rationale for
treating scroll events differently:
* Mouse move / click / styles / tooltips are for elements the user is
interacting with directly.
* Mouse scroll events are about finding the current outer scroll
container.
Most use of `occlude` should probably be switched to this, but I figured
I'd derisk this change by minimizing behavior changes to just the 3 uses
of `block_mouse_except_scroll`.
GPUI changes:
* Added `InteractiveElement::block_mouse_except_scroll()`, and removes
`stop_mouse_events_except_scroll()`
* Added `Hitbox::should_handle_scroll()` to be used when handling scroll
wheel events.
* `Window::insert_hitbox` now takes `HitboxBehavior` instead of
`occlude: bool`.
- `false` for that bool is now `HitboxBehavior::Normal`.
- `true` for that bool is now `HitboxBehavior::BlockMouse`.
- The new mode is `HitboxBehavior::BlockMouseExceptScroll`.
* Removes `Default` impl for `HitboxId` since applications should not
manually create `HitboxId(0)`.

This required adding scrollbar support to `list`. Since `list` is
virtualized, the scrollbar height will change as more items are
measured. When the user manually drags the scrollbar, we'll persist the
initial height and offset calculations accordingly to prevent the
scrollbar from moving away from the cursor as new items are measured.
We're not doing this yet, but in the future, it'd be nice to budget some
time each frame to layout unmeasured items so that the scrollbar height
is as accurate as possible.

Release Notes:
- Improved performance when using the scroll wheel and some other mouse
interactions.
Based on some cache details about GPUI `AnyView::cached` that I found in
the discussion of
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/24260#discussioncomment-12135749,
and combined with the optimization points found in actual applications.
This change may have some scenarios that I have not considered, so I
just make a draft to put forward my ideas first for discussion.
From my analysis, `AnyView::cached` will always invalid by Div's mouse
events, because of it called `window.refresh`. I understand that (mouse
move event) this is because the interface changes related to hover and
mouse_move will be affected style, so `window.refresh` is required.
Since Div does not have the `entity_id` of View, it is impossible to
know which View should be refreshed, so the entire window can only be
refreshed.
With this change, we can reduce a lot of `render` method calls on
ScrollWheel or Mouse Event.
There's still a bit more work to do on this, but this PR is compiling
(with warnings) after eliminating the key types. When the tasks below
are complete, this will be the new narrative for GPUI:
- `Entity<T>` - This replaces `View<T>`/`Model<T>`. It represents a unit
of state, and if `T` implements `Render`, then `Entity<T>` implements
`Element`.
- `&mut App` This replaces `AppContext` and represents the app.
- `&mut Context<T>` This replaces `ModelContext` and derefs to `App`. It
is provided by the framework when updating an entity.
- `&mut Window` Broken out of `&mut WindowContext` which no longer
exists. Every method that once took `&mut WindowContext` now takes `&mut
Window, &mut App` and every method that took `&mut ViewContext<T>` now
takes `&mut Window, &mut Context<T>`
Not pictured here are the two other failed attempts. It's been quite a
month!

Using the file system as a database seems like it's easy, but it's
actually a real pain. I'd like to use LMDB to store the prompts locally
so we have more control. We can always add an export option, but I want
the source of truth to be somewhere other than the file system.
So far, I have a PromptStore which is global to the application and can
be initialized on startup. Then there's a `PromptLibrary` which is
intended to be the root of a new kind of Zed window. I haven't actually
seen pixels yet, but I've sketched out the basics needed to create a new
prompt, save, etc.
Still lots to figure out but the foundations of being backed by a DB and
rendering in an independent window are in place.

We're planning to associate "selection sources" with global element ids
to allow arbitrary UI text to be selected in GPUI. Previously, global
ids were not exposed outside the framework and we entangled management
of the element id stack with element state access. This was more
acceptable when element state was the only place we used global element
ids, but now that we're planning to use them more places, it makes sense
to deal with element identity as a first-class part of the element
system. We now ensure that the stack of element ids which forms the
current global element id is correctly managed in every phase of element
layout and paint and make the global id available to each element
method. In a subsequent PR, we'll use the global element id as part of
implementing arbitrary selection for UI text.

The new `ElementContext` was originally introduced to ensure the element
APIs could only be used inside of elements. Unfortunately, there were
many places where some of those APIs needed to be used, so
`WindowContext::with_element_context` was introduced, which defeated the
original safety purposes of having a specific context for elements.
This pull request merges `ElementContext` into `WindowContext` and adds
(debug) runtime checks to APIs that can only be used during certain
phases of element drawing.

This removes the manual calls to `scroll_to_reveal_item` in the new
assistant, as they are superseded by the new autoscrolling behavior of
the `List` when the editor requests one.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This pull request introduces the new
`ElementContext::request_autoscroll(bounds)` and
`ElementContext::take_autoscroll()` methods in GPUI. These new APIs
enable container elements such as `List` to change their scroll position
if one of their children requested an autoscroll. We plan to use this in
the revamped assistant.
As a drive-by, we also:
- Renamed `Element::before_layout` to `Element::request_layout`
- Renamed `Element::after_layout` to `Element::prepaint`
- Introduced a new `List::splice_focusable` method to splice focusable
elements into the list, which enables rendering offscreen elements that
are focused.

### Problem
After transitioning Zed to GPUI 2, we started noticing that interacting
with the mouse on many UI elements would lead to a pretty annoying
flicker. The main issue with the old approach was that hover state was
calculated based on the previous frame. That is, when computing whether
a given element was hovered in the current frame, we would use
information about the same element in the previous frame.
However, inspecting the previous frame tells us very little about what
should be hovered in the current frame, as elements in the current frame
may have changed significantly.
### Solution
This pull request's main contribution is the introduction of a new
`after_layout` phase when redrawing the window. The key idea is that
we'll give every element a chance to register a hitbox (see
`ElementContext::insert_hitbox`) before painting anything. Then, during
the `paint` phase, elements can determine whether they're the topmost
and draw their hover state accordingly.
We are also removing the ability to give an arbitrary z-index to
elements. Instead, we will follow the much simpler painter's algorithm.
That is, an element that gets painted after will be drawn on top of an
element that got painted earlier. Elements can still escape their
current "stacking context" by using the new `ElementContext::defer_draw`
method (see `Overlay` for an example). Elements drawn using this method
will still be logically considered as being children of their original
parent (for keybinding, focus and cache invalidation purposes) but their
layout and paint passes will be deferred until the currently-drawn
element is done.
With these changes we also reworked geometry batching within the
`Scene`. The new approach uses an AABB tree to determine geometry
occlusion, which allows the GPU to render non-overlapping geometry in
parallel.
### Performance
Performance is slightly better than on `main` even though this new
approach is more correct and we're maintaining an extra data structure
(the AABB tree).

Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug that was causing popovers to flicker.

If the list is large (size > overdraw + available height) the
`all_rendered` check was preventing the list from returning an inferred
size. Theoretically we can now report heights which are actually too
small (because not all items were affected during layout), this can be
manually adjusted using the overdraw parameter. In this case its fine
because the picker is inside a max_height which should never be more
then the overdraw we specify (1000 px), and the list will shrink down
either way when the request_measured_layout callback is called again.
Release Notes:
- Fixed flashing of recent projects list when there were a lot of
projects in the list
([#8364](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/8364#issuecomment-1962849393)).
