For image (sixel, iTerm2, Kitty...) support that handles graphics in
terms of `Rect` so that the image area can be included in layouts.
For example: an image is loaded with a known pixel-size, and drawn, but
the image protocol has no mechanism of knowing the actual cell/character
area that been drawn on. It is then impossible to skip overdrawing the
area.
Returning the window size in pixel-width / pixel-height, together with
colums / rows, it can be possible to account the pixel size of each cell
/ character, and then known the `Rect` of a given image, and also resize
the image so that it fits exactly in a `Rect`.
Crossterm and termwiz also both return both sizes from one syscall,
while termion does two.
Add a `Size` struct for the cases where a `Rect`'s `x`/`y` is unused
(always zero).
`Size` is not "clipped" for `area < u16::max_value()` like `Rect`. This
is why there are `From` implementations between the two.
Calculating the label_offset is unnecessary, if we just render the
group label after rendering the bars. We can just reuse bar_y.

The graphics are then rendered with the top left positioned at the
cursor position.
It is actually possible to render sixels in ratatui with just
`buf.get_mut(x, y).set_symbol("^[Pq ... ^[\")`. But any buffer covering
the "image area" will overwrite the graphics. This is most likely the same
buffer, even though it consists of empty characters `' '`, except for
the top-left character that starts the sequence.
Thus, either the buffer or cells must be specialized to avoid drawing
over the graphics. This patch specializes the `Cell` with a
`set_skip(bool)` method, based on James' patch:
https://github.com/TurtleTheSeaHobo/tui-rs/tree/sixel-support
I unsuccessfully tried specializing the `Buffer`, but as far as I can tell
buffers get merged all the way "up" and thus skipping must be set on the
Cells. Otherwise some kind of "skipping area" state would be required,
which I think is too complicated.
Having access to the buffer now it is possible to skipp all cells but the
first one which can then `set_symbol(sixel)`. It is up to the user to
deal with the graphics size and buffer area size. It is possible to get
the terminal's font size in pixels with a syscall.
An image widget for ratatui that uses this `skip` flag is available at
https://github.com/benjajaja/ratatu-image.

* feat(barchart): Add direction attribute
Enable rendring the bars horizontally. In some cases this allow us to
make more efficient use of the available space.

* feat(barchart)!: render the group labels depending on the alignment
This is a breaking change, since the alignment by default is set to
Left and the group labels are always rendered in the center.

The merge of the table unit tests after the rounding layout fix was not
rebased correctly, this addresses the broken tests, makes them more
concise while adding comments to help clarify that the rounding behavior
is working as expected.
Previously the layout used the floor of the calculated start and width
as the value to use for the split Rects. This resulted in gaps between
the split rects.
This change modifies the layout to round to the nearest column instead
of taking the floor of the start and width. This results in the start
and end of each rect being rounded the same way and being strictly
adjacent without gaps.
Because there is a required constraint that ensures that the last end is
equal to the area end, there is no longer the need to fixup the last
item width when the fill (as e.g. width = x.99 now rounds to x+1 not x).
The colors example has been updated to use Ratio(1, 8) instead of
Percentage(13), as this now renders without gaps for all possible sizes,
whereas previously it would have left odd gaps between columns.
* test(layout): add tests for split()
* refactor(layout): simplify and doc split()
This is mainly a reduction in density of the code with a goal of
improving mainatainability so that the algorithm is clear.
