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`
This is an opinionated default that helps avoid horizontal scrolling.
100 is the most common width on github rust projects and works well for
displaying code on a 16in macbook pro.
`Paragraph` now supports rendering each line in the paragraph with a
different alignment (Center, Left and Right) rather than the entire
paragraph being aligned the same. Each line either overrides the
paragraph's alignment or inherits it if the line's alignment is
unspecified.
- Adds `alignment` field to `Line` and builder methods on `Line` and
`Span`
- Updates reflow module types to be line oriented rather than symbol
oriented to take account of each lines alignment
- Adds unit tests to `Paragraph` to fully capture the existing and new
behavior

* 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
* `Paragraph:scroll` takes a tuple of offsets instead of a single vertical offset.
* `LineTruncator` takes this new horizontal offset into account to let the paragraph scroll horizontally.
