Windows 7 doesn't support the underline color attribute, so we need to
make it optional. This commit adds a feature flag for the underline
color attribute - it is enabled by default, but can be disabled by
passing `--no-default-features` to cargo.
We could specically check for Windows 7 and disable the feature flag
automatically, but I think it's better for this check to be done by the
crossterm crate, since it's the one that actually knows about the
underlying terminal.
To disable the feature flag in an application that supports Windows 7,
add the following to your Cargo.toml:
```toml
ratatui = { version = "0.24.0", default-features = false, features = ["crossterm"] }
```

* feat(canvas): implement half block marker
A useful technique for the terminal is to use half blocks to draw a grid
of "pixels" on the screen. Because we can set two colors per cell, and
because terminal cells are about twice as tall as they are wide, we can
draw a grid of half blocks that looks like a grid of square pixels.
This commit adds a new `HalfBlock` marker that can be used in the Canvas
widget and the associated HalfBlockGrid.
Also updated demo2 to use the new marker as it looks much nicer.
Adds docs for many of the methods and structs on canvas.
Changes the grid resolution method to return the pixel count
rather than the index of the last pixel.
This is an internal detail with no user impact.
Replace `remove_invisible_groups_and_bars` with `group_ticks`
`group_ticks` calculates the visible bar length in ticks. (A cell contains 8 ticks).
It is used for 2 purposes:
1. to get the bar length in ticks for rendering
2. since it delivers only the values of the visible bars, If we zip these values
with the groups and bars, then we will filter out the invisible groups and bars

* docs: make library and README consistent
Generate the bulk of the README from the library documentation, so that
they are consistent using cargo-rdme.
- Removed the Contributors section, as it is redundant with the github
contributors list.
- Removed the info about the other backends and replaced it with a
pointer to the documentation.
- add docsrs example, vhs tape and images that will end up in the README
Fixes: https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/issues/512
The bar values are not shown if the value width is equal the bar width
and the bar is height is less than one line
Add an internal structure `LabelInfo` which stores the reserved height
for the labels (0, 1 or 2) and also whether the labels will be shown.

This change simplifys UI code that uses the Frame type. E.g.:
```rust
fn draw<B: Backend>(frame: &mut Frame<B>) {
// ...
}
```
Frame was generic over Backend because it stored a reference to the
terminal in the field. Instead it now directly stores the viewport area
and current buffer. These are provided at creation time and are valid
for the duration of the frame.
BREAKING CHANGE: Frame is no longer generic over Backend. Code that
accepted `Frame<Backend>` will now need to accept `Frame`. To migrate
existing code, remove any generic parameters from code that uses an
instance of a Frame. E.g. the above code becomes:
```rust
fn draw(frame: &mut Frame) {
// ...
}
```
- add `Rect::is_empty()` that checks whether either height or width == 0
- refactored `Rect` into layout/rect.rs from layout.rs. No public API change as
the module is private and the type is re-exported under the `layout` module.
Adds a new `Block::border_set` method that allows the user to specify
the symbols used for the border.
Added two new border types: `BorderType::QuadrantOutside` and
`BorderType::QuadrantInside`. These are used to draw borders using the
unicode quadrant characters (which look like half block "pixels").
QuadrantOutside:
```
▛▀▀▜
▌ ▐
▙▄▄▟
```
QuadrantInside:
```
▗▄▄▖
▐ ▌
▝▀▀▘
```
Fixes: https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/issues/528
BREAKING CHANGES:
- BorderType::to_line_set is renamed to to_border_set
- BorderType::line_symbols is renamed to border_symbols
* feat(line): add `Line::raw` constructor
There is already `Span::raw` and `Text::raw` methods
and this commit simply adds `Line::raw` method for symmetry.
Multi-line content is converted to multiple spans with the new line removed
An earlier change introduced a bug where the width of value labels with
unicode characters was incorrectly using the string length in bytes
instead of the unicode character count. This reverts the earlier change.

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`
Windows cannot compile termion, so it is not included in the docs.
Rustdoc will fail if it cannot find a link, so the docs fail to build
on windows.
This replaces the link to TermionBackend with one that does not fail
during checks.

The layout cache now uses a LruCache with default size set to 16 entries.
Previously the cache was backed by a HashMap, and was able to grow
without bounds as a new entry was added for every new combination of
layout parameters.
- Added a new method (`layout::init_cache(usize)`) that allows the cache
size to be changed if necessary. This will only have an effect if it is called
prior to any calls to `layout::split()` as the cache is wrapped in a `OnceLock`
This allows writing unit tests without having to call set_style on the
expected buffer.
E.g.:
```rust
use crate::style::Stylize;
let mut buf = Buffer::empty(Rect::new(0, 0, 10, 10));
buf.set_string(0, 0, "foo", Style::new().red());
buf.set_string(0, 1, "bar", Style::new().blue());
assert_eq!(buf, Buffer::with_lines(vec!["foo".red(), "bar".blue()]));
```

This commit adds `prelude::*` all doc examples and widget::* to those
that need it. This is done to highlight the use of the prelude and
simplify the examples.
- Examples in Type and module level comments show all imports and use
`prelude::*` and `widget::*` where possible.
- Function level comments hide imports unless there are imports other
than `prelude::*` and `widget::*`.
The Stylize trait was introduced in 0.22 to make styling less verbose.
This adds a bunch of documentation comments to the style module and
types to make this easier to discover.
Although the `Stylize` trait is already implemented for `&str` which
extends to `String`, it is not implemented for `String` itself. This
commit adds an impl of Stylize that returns a Span<'static> for `String`
so that code can call Stylize methods on temporary `String`s.
E.g. the following now compiles instead of failing with a compile error
about referencing a temporary value:
let s = format!("hello {name}!", "world").red();
BREAKING CHANGE: This may break some code that expects to call Stylize
methods on `String` values and then use the String value later. This
will now fail to compile because the String is consumed by set_style
instead of a slice being created and consumed.
This can be fixed by cloning the `String`. E.g.:
let s = String::from("hello world");
let line = Line::from(vec![s.red(), s.green()]); // fails to compile
let line = Line::from(vec![s.clone().red(), s.green()]); // works
