Code which previously called `buf.get(x, y)` or `buf.get_mut(x, y)`
should now use index operators, or be transitioned to `buff.cell()` or
`buf.cell_mut()` for safe access that avoids panics by returning
`Option<&Cell>` and `Option<&mut Cell>`.
The new methods accept `Into<Position>` instead of `x` and `y`
coordinates, which makes them more ergonomic to use.
```rust
let mut buffer = Buffer::empty(Rect::new(0, 0, 10, 10));
let cell = buf[(0, 0)];
let cell = buf[Position::new(0, 0)];
let symbol = buf.cell((0, 0)).map(|cell| cell.symbol());
let symbol = buf.cell(Position::new(0, 0)).map(|cell| cell.symbol());
buf[(0, 0)].set_symbol("🐀");
buf[Position::new(0, 0)].set_symbol("🐀");
buf.cell_mut((0, 0)).map(|cell| cell.set_symbol("🐀"));
buf.cell_mut(Position::new(0, 0)).map(|cell| cell.set_symbol("🐀"));
```
The existing `get()` and `get_mut()` methods are marked as deprecated.
These are fairly widely used and we will leave these methods around on
the buffer for a longer time than our normal deprecation approach (2
major release)

- 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.
`Block::bordered()` is shorter than
`Block::new().borders(Borders::ALL)`, requires one less import
(`Borders`) and in case `Block::default()` was used before can even be
`const`.
The background colors of the gauge had a workaround for the issue we had
with VHS / TTYD rendering the background color of the gauge. This
workaround is no longer necessary in the updated versions of VHS / TTYD.
Fixes https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/issues/501
* fix(gauge): render gauge with unicode correctly
Gauge now correctly renders a block rather than a space when in unicode mode.
* docs: update demo.gif
- remove existing gif
- upload using VHS (https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs)
- add instructions to RELEASE.md
- link new gif in README
* gauge now uses unicode blocks for more descriptive progress
* removed unnecessary if
* changed function name to better reflect unicode
* standardized block symbols, added no unicode option, added tests
* formatting
* improved readability
* gauge tests now check color
* formatted
