This does some refactoring to allow builtin item functions to return a
value:
- builtin member functions are no longer BuiltinFunction, but they are
just normal NamedReference
- Move special case for them in the LLR/eval
`__CARGO_FIX_YOLO=1` is a hack, but it does help a lot with the tedious fixes where the result is fairly clear.
See https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#needless_return

Consider
```slint
// Some code in the wild actually have made their own menubar before
component MenuBar { /* ... */ }
component Row { /* ... */ }
export component Main inherits Window {
// This should find the declared component and not the builtin component
MenuBar { }
GridLayout {
Row {}
}
}
```
Previously, `MenuBar` and `Row` were first resolved against
`additional_accepted_child_types` and so it would always find the
builtin one.
But this patch changes that to find the builtin one only if it hasn't
been replaced by another component with the name name.
(So we'd use the cusom MenuBar and the custom Row)
Another change is that we also lookup the
additional_accepted_child_types if they are in a @children.
```slint
component MyGrid {
GridLayout { @children }
}
export component Main {
MyGrid {
// This used to be an error but is now accepted
Row { }
}
}
```
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 is rarely used, but using Rc here like elsewhere allows us to
elide a few unneccessary memory allocations when copying such types.
The speed impact is not measurable though. With heaptrack I see that
we get rid of the last ~7600 allocations in my benchmark when cloning
Type.
This makes copying such types much cheaper and will allow us to
intern common struct types in the future too. This further
drops the sample cost for langtype.rs from ~6.6% down to 4.0%.
We are now also able to share/intern common struct types.
Before:
```
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
```
After:
```
Time (mean ± σ): 1.034 s ± 0.026 s [User: 0.733 s, System: 0.201 s]
Range (min … max): 1.000 s … 1.078 s 10 runs
allocations: 2917476
```
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
```
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).
Before:
```
Benchmark 1: ./target/release/slint-viewer ../slint-perf/app.slint
Time (mean ± σ): 664.2 ms ± 6.7 ms [User: 589.2 ms, System: 74.0 ms]
Range (min … max): 659.0 ms … 682.4 ms 10 runs
allocations: 4886888
temporary allocations: 857508
```

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.
We wouldn't detect percent as a unit product in
43c7f57b0f/internal/compiler/generator/rust.rs (L2418-L2422)
Percent is not strictly of percent unit because that unit doesn't
combine with other unit (as per the comment in `default_unit`)
But since it converts to number, it is then an unitless value. (scalar)
Fixes#5887
Updated the version from 1.1 to 1.2
Renamed the header to "Slint Royalty-free Desktop, Mobile, and Web Applications License"
Added definition of "Mobile Application" and grant of right
Moved "Limitations" to 3rd section and "License Conditions - Attributions" to 2nd section
Added flexibility to choose between showing "MadeWithSlint" as a dialog/splash screen or on a public webpage
Moved the para on copyright notices to section under "Limitations"
Slpit up `lookup_type_for_child_elemnt` (in the compiler) into the
part that looks at the element itself only (called `accepts_child_element`)
and the part that looks at the child.
When deciding whether we can drop something into another element in
the live preview, we know the child type is going to be OK, even when
the `TypeRegister` does not contain it yet (as it is not imported yet).
* Extend the cspell word list
* Remove those extensions from individual source files
* white-list licenses and such as we should not meddle with those
* Fix spelling
Fixes#2977
The problem is that expressions such as "foo * foo" can be optimized by
optimization pass to only query the property once, and this is
transformed in a Expression::CodeBlock and is no longer a
Expression::Cast(Model)
So we need to introspect the expression more.
In the new language, we plan to center the element within their parent,
so for compatibility, add explicit x and y binding putting them back in
the corner
These are two different concept, and it is confusing to keep them in the
same enum
We want to support component without any base element, and Void is
already used for global component, so do this refactoring before
Group property from the base class they are defined, and for built in
property, group them by category.
Also filter callback and other reserved properties that are not valid
for some elements.
