To keep compatibility with existing Slint code
Commit 53e79000a4 added a call to
LayoutConstraints::new which is shown to produce error in the crater
run.
Instead of panicking.
Attempt to fix it in #6765 didn't work for C++.
Code generation might be hard for C++, so I thought it's better to error out.
Fix#6760
This allows us to cheaply copy the langtype::Type values which
contain such a type. The runtime impact is small and barely noticable
but a sampling profiler shows a clear reduction in samples pointing
at langtype.rs, roughly reducing that from ~8.6% inclusive cost
down to 6.6% inclusive cost.
Furthermore, this allows us to share/intern common types.
Before:
```
Benchmark 1: ./target/release/slint-viewer ../slint-perf/app.slint
Time (mean ± σ): 1.089 s ± 0.026 s [User: 0.771 s, System: 0.216 s]
Range (min … max): 1.046 s … 1.130 s 10 runs
allocations: 3152149
```
After:
```
Time (mean ± σ): 1.073 s ± 0.021 s [User: 0.759 s, System: 0.215 s]
Range (min … max): 1.034 s … 1.105 s 10 runs
allocations: 3074261
```
Fix#6588
Note for the test: parse error at the end of the file are actually
reported at offset 0. Use a trick to add more `^` at the beginning to
mean that.
(Offset 0 is actually offset 1 as the column starts at 1)
This removes a lot of allocations and speeds up the compiler step
a bit. Sadly, this patch is very invasive as it touches a lot of
files. That said, each individual hunk is pretty trivial.
For a non-trivial real-world example, the impact is significant,
we get rid of ~29% of all allocations and improve the runtime by
about 4.8% (measured until the viewer loop would start).

The struct held provides access to the design metrics of the font scaled
to the font pixel size used by the element.
ChangeLog: Slint Language: Added font-metrics property to `Text` and `TextInput`.
Closes#6047
eg, don't report an error for each callback or animation or changed
event that the the property doesn't exist or such.
Also reword the message when an element doesn't exist. Use "element"
rather than "type" as it is more accurate.
And use that in the lsp/ui implementation instead of comments.
This is only a parser support for now, the name is otherwise unused.
Hence I rather keep that experimental.
Have a warning when a component is exported from the main file and
doesn't inherit Window.
Unless it's the last component, for compatibility with Slint 1.6
Also don't warn in the interpreter
This reverts commit 66652cdc1d.
The warning in the gallery are hard to fix because the component inherit
from a layout and there is nowhere to place the popups
