Fix "drunk text" bug (#8250)

## Symptom

Fix this long-standing, occasional bug, that can cause text to look
compressed and "drunk":

## Root cause

`epaint::TextureAtlas::take_delta` is fire-and-forget: it resets the
dirty region as soon as it hands out a delta, assuming the delta will be
uploaded. Atlas growth always emits a **full** `ImageDelta` (`pos:
None`) which recreates the GPU texture at the new size — *as long as it
is applied*. But both native integrations applied `textures_delta`
inside skippable code paths:

- **wgpu** (`egui-wgpu/src/winit.rs`): textures were uploaded only
*after* surface-dependent early-returns (`render_state` /
`surfaces.get_mut(viewport_id)` missing). Texture uploads are
device-level and don't need a surface.
- **glow** (`eframe/src/native/glow_integration.rs`): textures were
uploaded only inside `if is_visible { … }` (and after a viewport-missing
early-return), while `integration.update` still ran and grew the atlas.
The root window even starts hidden on purpose (`with_visible(false)`, to
avoid a startup white flash), so the very first frames hit this.

When the delta was dropped, the GPU font texture stayed smaller than the
CPU-side atlas; every glyph UV (normalized by the CPU atlas size) then
sampled the wrong rows until the next full atlas recreation. wgpu/Metal
can't detect this — the read is in-bounds, just the wrong row.

## Fixes

- **wgpu**: apply `textures_delta.set` right after `render_state` is
obtained, **before** any surface-dependent early-return. `free` still
runs after submit (unchanged).
- **glow**: apply `textures_delta.set` (and `free`) regardless of
`is_visible`, making the GL context current when there's anything to
upload; only tessellation/paint/swap stay gated on visibility.
- **debug assert** in `egui-wgpu`'s `Renderer::update_texture`: a full
delta must (re)create the GPU texture at exactly the delta size —
catches any future CPU/GPU size desync at the source.

## wgpu ruled out

Confirmed the desync is **not** inside wgpu: Metal `create_texture` uses
the exact descriptor size, and `queue.write_texture` validates against
the texture's own live `desc` — a single texture can't have CPU/GPU
sizes disagree. The mismatch is born at the egui boundary (atlas size
for UVs vs. last-applied upload), which wgpu cannot see.

## Testing note

A headless regression test of `paint_and_update_textures` isn't
practical (it needs a real winit window; `render_state` is private with
no surface-less setter). I verified the failure *mechanism* separately
on macOS/Metal (texture lagging the atlas → silent wrong-row sampling,
no wgpu error), but that demo did not exercise the fixed code path, so
it's not included. The fixes rest on the reasoning above.
