Less risk of confusing the two.
Found and fix a couple real bugs in the process!

Please read the "Making a PR" section of
[`CONTRIBUTING.md`](https://github.com/emilk/egui/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
before opening a Pull Request!
* Keep your PR:s small and focused.
* The PR title is what ends up in the changelog, so make it descriptive!
* If applicable, add a screenshot or gif.
* If it is a non-trivial addition, consider adding a demo for it to
`egui_demo_lib`, or a new example.
* Do NOT open PR:s from your `master` branch, as that makes it hard for
maintainers to test and add commits to your PR.
* Remember to run `cargo fmt` and `cargo clippy`.
* Open the PR as a draft until you have self-reviewed it and run
`./scripts/check.sh`.
* When you have addressed a PR comment, mark it as resolved.
Please be patient! I will review your PR, but my time is limited!

* Closes N/A, but this is part of
https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3378
* [x] I have followed the instructions in the PR template
Other text layout libraries in Rust--namely, Parley and Cosmic
Text--have one canonical text cursor type (Parley's is a byte index,
Cosmic Text's also stores the line index). To prepare for migrating egui
to one of those libraries, it should also have only one text cursor
type. I also think simplifying the API is a good idea in and of
itself--having three different cursor types that you have to convert
between (and a `Cursor` struct which contains all three at once) is
confusing.
After a bit of experimentation, I found that the best cursor type to
coalesce around is `CCursor`. In the few places where we need a
paragraph index or row/column position, we can calculate them as
necessary.
I've removed `CursorRange` and `PCursorRange` (the latter appears to
have never been used), merging the functionality with `CCursorRange`. To
preserve the cursor position when navigating row-by-row, `CCursorRange`
now stores the previous horizontal position of the cursor.
I've also removed `PCursor`, and renamed `RowCursor` to `LayoutCursor`
(since it includes not only the row but the column). I have not renamed
either `CCursorRange` or `CCursor` as those names are used in a lot of
places, and I don't want to clutter this PR with a bunch of renames.
I'll leave it for a later PR.
Finally, I've removed the deprecated methods from `TextEditState`--it
made the refactoring easier, and it should be pretty easy to migrate to
the equivalent `TextCursorState` methods.
I'm not sure how many breaking changes people will actually encounter. A
lot of these APIs were technically public, but I don't think many were
useful. The `TextBuffer` trait now takes `&CCursorRange` instead of
`&CursorRange` in a couple of methods, and I renamed
`CCursorRange::sorted` to `CCursorRange::sorted_cursors` to match
`CursorRange`.
I did encounter a couple of apparent minor bugs when testing out text
cursor behavior, but I checked them against the current version of egui
and they're all pre-existing.
* Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3816
Turn off with `style.interaction.multi_widget_text_select`.
There is an API for this in `LabelSelectionState`, but it's pretty
bare-bones.
This became really hairy implementation-wise, but it works decently
well.
# Limitations
* Drag-select to scroll doesn't work
* A selection disappears if you scroll past one of its end-points
* Only the text of labels and links are selectable
## TODO
* [x] An option to turn it off
* [x] An API for querying about the selected text, and to deselect it.
* [x] Scrolling past selection behaves weird
* [x] Shift-click to select a range
* squash before rebase
* Update AccessKit, introducing support for editable spinners on Windows and an important fix for navigation order on macOS
* Restore support for increment and decrement actions in DragValue
* Avoid VoiceOver race condition bug
* fix clippy lint
* Tell AccessKit that the default action for a text edit (equivalent to a click) is to set the focus. This matters to some platform adapters.
* Refactor InputState functions for AccessKit actions
* Support the AccessKit SetValue for DragValue; this is the only way for a Windows AT to programmatically adjust the value
* Same for Slider
* Properly associate the slider label with both the slider and the drag value
* Lazily activate egui's AccessKit support
* fix clippy lint
* Update AccessKit
* More documentation, particularly around lazy activation
* Tweak one of the doc comments
* See if I can get AccessKit exempted from the 'missing backticks' lint
* Make PlatformOutput::accesskit_update an Option
* Refactor lazy activation
* Refactor node mutation (again)
* Eliminate the need for an explicit is_accesskit_active method, at least for now
* Fix doc comment
* More refactoring of tree construction; don't depend on Arc::get_mut
* Override a clippy lint; I seem to have no other choice
* Final planned refactor: a more flexible approach to hierarchy
* Last AccessKit update for this PR; includes an important macOS DPI fix
* Move and document the optional accesskit dependency
* Fix comment typo
