TODO:
- [x] BackgroundOrientation
- [x] PatternDash
- [x] `pattern_horizontal_dash` & `pattern_vertical_dash`
- [x] Metal dash shader
- [x] Blade dash shader
- [x] Update ui::Divider to use new pattern
---
This PR introduces proper dashed dividers using the new `PatternDash`
background shader.

Before this we were using 128 elements to create a dashed divider, which
is both expensive, and would not scale beyond a certain size. This
allows us to simplify the divider element as well.
Changes:
- Adds `BackgroundOrientation` to `gpui::color::Background` to allow
specifying a direction for a pattern
- Adds the PatternDash pattern variant
- Updates `ui::Divider`'s dashed variants to be more efficient
Misc:
- Documents the `ui::Divider` component
- Treat `.metal` files as `C` in the Zed project until we get some metal
syntax highlighting.
Release Notes:
- N/A
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!
Tasks:
- [x] Remove `View`, `ViewContext`, `WindowContext` and thread through
`Window`
- [x] [@cole-miller @mikayla-maki] Redraw window when entities change
- [x] [@cole-miller @mikayla-maki] Get examples and Zed running
- [x] [@cole-miller @mikayla-maki] Fix Zed rendering
- [x] [@mikayla-maki] Fix todo! macros and comments
- [x] Fix a bug where the editor would not be redrawn because of view
caching
- [x] remove publicness window.notify() and replace with
`AppContext::notify`
- [x] remove `observe_new_window_models`, replace with
`observe_new_models` with an optional window
- [x] Fix a bug where the project panel would not be redrawn because of
the wrong refresh() call being used
- [x] Fix the tests
- [x] Fix warnings by eliminating `Window` params or using `_`
- [x] Fix conflicts
- [x] Simplify generic code where possible
- [x] Rename types
- [ ] Update docs
### issues post merge
- [x] Issues switching between normal and insert mode
- [x] Assistant re-rendering failure
- [x] Vim test failures
- [x] Mac build issue

Adds a simple git placeholder panel for us to iterate from. Also
includes a number of assets from the git prototyping branch that we will
use.
Note: This panel is staff flagged for now.

Similar to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/18690 &
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/18695, this PR enables
required docs for `ui` and does some cleanup.
Changes:
- Enables the `deny(missing_docs)` crate-wide.
- Adds `allow(missing_docs)` on many modules until folks pick them up to
document them
- Documents some modules (all in `ui/src/styles`)
- Crate root-level organization: Traits move to `traits`, other misc
organization
- Cleaned out a bunch of unused code.
Note: I'd like to remove `utils/format_distance` but the assistant panel
uses it. To move it over to use the `time_format` crate we may need to
update it to use `time` instead of `chrono`. Needs more investigation.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This PR cleans up a number of references in doc comments in the `ui` and
`theme` crates so that `rustdoc` will link and display them correctly.
