- Simplify `assert_buffer_eq!` logic.
- Deprecate `assert_buffer_eq!`.
- Introduce `TestBackend::assert_buffer_lines`.
Also simplify many tests involving buffer comparisons.
For the deprecation, just use `assert_eq` instead of `assert_buffer_eq`:
```diff
-assert_buffer_eq!(actual, expected);
+assert_eq!(actual, expected);
```

I noticed `assert_buffer_eq!` creating no test coverage reports and
looked into this macro. First I simplified it. Then I noticed a bunch of
`assert_eq!(buffer, …)` and other indirect usages of this macro (like
`TestBackend::assert_buffer`).
The good thing here is that it's mainly used in tests so not many
changes to the library code.
Any iterator whose item is convertible into `Line` can now be
collected into `Tabs`.
In addition, where previously `Tabs::new` required a `Vec`, it can now
accept any object that implements `IntoIterator` with an item type
implementing `Into<Line>`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Calls to `Tabs::new()` whose argument is collected from an iterator
will no longer compile. For example,
`Tabs::new(["a","b"].into_iter().collect())` will no longer compile,
because the return type of `.collect()` can no longer be inferred to
be a `Vec<_>`.
Previously the default highlight_style was set to `Style::default()`,
which meant that the highlight style was the same as the normal style.
This change sets the default highlight_style to reversed text.
BREAKING CHANGE: The `Tab` widget now renders the highlight style as
reversed text by default. This can be changed by setting the
`highlight_style` field of the `Tab` widget.
The `Spans` type (plural, not singular) was replaced with a more ergonomic `Line` type
in Ratatui v0.21.0 and marked deprecated byt left for backwards compatibility. This is now
removed.
- `Line` replaces `Spans`
- `Buffer::set_line` replaces `Buffer::set_spans`
* refactor: add Line type to replace Spans
`Line` is a significantly better name over `Spans` as the plural causes
confusion and the type really is a representation of a line of text made
up of spans.
This is a backwards compatible version of the approach from
https://github.com/tui-rs-revival/ratatui/pull/175
There is a significant amount of code that uses the Spans type and
methods, so instead of just renaming it, we add a new type and replace
parameters that accepts a `Spans` with a parameter that accepts
`Into<Line>`.
Note that the examples have been intentionally left using `Spans` in
this commit to demonstrate the compiler warnings that will be emitted in
existing code.
Implementation notes:
- moves the Spans code to text::spans and publicly reexports on the text
module. This makes the test in that module only relevant to the Spans
type.
- adds a line module with a copy of the code and tests from Spans with a
single addition: `impl<'a> From<Spans<'a>> for Line<'a>`
- adds tests for `Spans` (created and checked before refactoring)
- adds the same tests for `Line`
- updates all widget methods that accept and store Spans to instead
store `Line` and accept `Into<Line>`
* refactor: move text::Masked to text::masked::Masked
Re-exports the Masked type at text::Masked
* refactor: replace Spans with Line in tests/examples/docs
