I'll probably come back to this and clean it up a bit. This PR
reimplements ab_glyph's functionality on top of Skrifa, a somewhat
lower-level font API that's being used in Chrome now.
Skrifa doesn't perform rasterization itself, so I'm using
[vello_cpu](https://github.com/linebender/vello) from the Linebender
project for rasterization. It's still in its early days, but I believe
it's already quite fast. It also supports color and gradient fills, so
color emoji support will be easier.
Skrifa also supports font hinting, which should make text look a bit
nicer / less blurry.
Here's the current ab_glyph rendering:
<img width="1592" height="1068" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2385b66e-23f8-4c6e-b8c2-ea90e0eea4e4"
/>
Here's Skrifa *without* hinting--it looks almost identical, but there
are some subpixel differences, probably due to rasterizer behavior:
<img width="1592" height="1068" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a815f3e9-65ac-4940-bc00-571177bef53d"
/>
Here's Skrifa *with* hinting:
<img width="1592" height="1068" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d6cc0669-3537-4377-bba9-ed5ef09664db"
/>
Hinting does make the horizontal strokes look a bit bolder, which makes
me wonder once again about increasing the font weight from "light" to
"regular".

### What
From the [lint
description](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html?search=or_fu#or_fun_call):
> The function will always be called. This is only bad if it allocates
or does some non-trivial amount of work.
But also:
> If the function has side-effects, not calling it will change the
semantic of the program, but you shouldn’t rely on that.
>
> The lint also cannot figure out whether the function you call is
actually expensive to call or not.
Still worth it to keep our happy paths clean, imo.
* Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/7647
This collects SnapshotResults within the Harness and adds a check to
enforce snapshot results are merged in case multiple Harnesses are
constructed within a test.
This should make snapshot updates via kitdiff/accept_snapshots.sh way
more useful since it should now always update all snapshots instead of
only the first one per test.
## Short bluesky announcement:
We just released egui 0.33.0!
Highlights:
- `egui::Plugin` a improved way to create and access egui plugins
- [kitdiff](https://github.com/rerun-io/kitdiff), a viewer for
egui_kittest image snapshots (and a general image diff tool)
- better kerning (check the diff on
[kitdiff](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/7431))

# egui 0.33.0 changelog
Highlights from this release:
- `egui::Plugin` a improved way to create and access egui plugins
- [kitdiff](https://github.com/rerun-io/kitdiff), a viewer for
egui_kittest image snapshots (and a general image diff tool)
- better kerning
### Improved kerning
As a step towards using [parley](https://github.com/linebender/parley)
for font rendering, @valadaptive has refactored the font loading and
rendering code. A result of this (next to the font rendering code being
much nicer now) is improved kerning.
Notice how the c moved away from the k:

### `egui::Plugin` trait
We've added a new trait-based plugin api, meant to replace
`Context::on_begin_pass` and `Context::on_end_pass`.
This makes it a lot easier to handle state in your plugins. Instead of
having to write to egui memory it can live right on your plugin struct.
The trait based api also makes easier to add new hooks that plugins can
use. In addition to `on_begin_pass` and `on_end_pass`, the `Plugin`
trait now has a `input_hook` and `output_hook` which you can use to
inspect / modify the `RawInput` / `FullOutput`.
### kitdiff, a image diff viewer
At rerun we have a ton of snapshots. Some PRs will change most of them
(e.g. [the](https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/11253/files)
[one](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/11253/files)
that updated egui and introduced the kerning improvements, ~500
snapshots changed!).
If you really want to look at every changed snapshot it better be as
efficient as possible, and the experience on github, fiddeling with the
sliders, is kind of frustrating.
In order to fix this, we've made
[kitdiff](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/).
You can use it locally via
- `kitdiff files .` will search for .new.png and .diff.png files
- `kitdiff git` will compare the current files to the default branch
(main/master)
Or in the browser via
- going to https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/ and pasting a PR or
github artifact url
- linking to kitdiff via e.g. a github workflow
`https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=<link_to_pr_or_artefact>`
To install kitdiff run `cargo install --git
https://github.com/rerun-io/kitdiff`
Here is a video showing the kerning changes in kitdiff ([try it
yourself](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/11253/files)):

### Migration guide
- `egui::Mutex` now has a timeout as a simple deadlock detection
- If you use a `egui::Mutex` in some place where it's held for longer
than a single frame, you should switch to the std mutex or parking_lot
instead (egui mutexes are wrappers around parking lot)
- `screen_rect` is deprecated
- In order to support safe areas, egui now has `viewport_rect` and
`content_rect`.
- Update all usages of `screen_rect` to `content_rect`, unless you are
sure that you want to draw outside the `safe area` (which would mean
your Ui may be covered by notches, system ui, etc.)
* closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/5674
This changes egui to create an AccessKit node for each `Ui`. I'm not
sure if this alone will directly improve accessibility, but it should
make it easier to create the correct parent / child relations (e.g.
grouping menus as children of menu buttons).
Instead of having a global stack of parent ids, they are now passed via
a parent_id field in `UiBuilder`.
If having all these `GenericContainer` nodes somehow is bad for
accessibility, the PR could also be changed to only create nodes if
there is actually some accessibility info with it (the relevant is
currently commented-out in the PR). But I think screen readers should
just ignore these nodes, so it should be fine? We could also use this as
motivation to git red of some unnecessary wrapped `Ui`s, e.g.
CentralPanel creates 3 Uis when 2 should be enough (the initial Ui and a
Frame, maybe we could even only show the `Frame` if we can give it an
UiBuilder and somehow show the Frame with `Ui::new`).
Here is a screenshot from the accessibility inspector
(https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/7368) with this PR:

Adds a helper to quickly see whats going on in a kittest test.
Not all test have snapshots, but when debugging tests it might still be
useful to see whats actually going on, so this adds a helper fn that
renders a snapshot image to a temporary file and opens it with the
default image viewer:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/08785850-0a12-4572-b9b5-cea36951081c
This PR is a continuation of #4915 by @frederik-uni and @lucasmerlin
that introduces support for keeping egui content within the 'safe area'
on iOS (avoiding the notch / dynamic island / menu bar etc.), with the
following changes:
- `SafeArea` now wraps `MarginF32` and has been renamed to
`SafeAreaInsets` to clarify its purpose.
- `InputState::screen_rect` is now marked as deprecated in favour of
either `viewport_rect` (which contains the entire screen), or
`content_rect` (which is the viewport rect with the safe area insets
removed).
- I added some comments to the safe area insets logic pointing out the
[safe area API coming in winit
v0.31](https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/issues/3910).

* Closes https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/issues/11301
This fixes a bug where a menu could get stuck, not closing at all, when
the currently open submenu stops being shown.
I also added a way to reproduce this to the demo, as well as a test
ensuring that there is no race condition in the fix.
This adds a new mode, `UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=force`, which will lower the
threshold to zero, overwriting every image that is not _exactly_ the
same.
Most comparisons has a threshold because different GPUs render slightly
differently. However, setting that threshold accurately can be hard.
Sometimes a test will pass locally, but fail on CI. In those cases you
want to force an update of the failing test. You can use
`UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=force` for that.
And sometimes a small change _should_ update all images, but the change
is so tiny that it falls under the threshold. Still, you want to make a
point of showing that these images have changes. You can use
`UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=force` for that.
The override_text_color is now used when rendering text from a String or
&str. This is consistent with the RichText variant and makes the option
behave as advertised, taking precedence over WidgetVisuals and
overriding the color for all text unless explicitly changed for a single
widget (via RichText or LayoutJob).

I thought about this - so we have two options here:
1. adding it to `SnapshotOptions`
2. adding it to every function which I do not like as this would be a
huge breaking change
## Summary
This pull request introduces a new feature to the `SnapshotOptions`
struct in the `egui_kittest` crate, allowing users to specify a
permissible percentage of pixel differences (`diff_percentage`) before a
snapshot comparison is considered a failure. This feature provides more
flexibility in handling minor visual discrepancies during snapshot
testing.
### Additions to `SnapshotOptions`:
* Added a new field `diff_percentage` of type `Option<f64>` to the
`SnapshotOptions` struct. This field allows users to define a tolerance
for pixel differences, with a default value of `None` (interpreted as 0%
tolerance).
* Updated the `Default` implementation of `SnapshotOptions` to
initialize `diff_percentage` to `None`.
### Integration into snapshot comparison logic:
* Updated the `try_image_snapshot_options` function to handle the new
`diff_percentage` field. If a `diff_percentage` is specified, the
function calculates the percentage of differing pixels and allows the
snapshot to pass if the difference is within the specified tolerance.

I need to scroll in a snapshot test in my app, and kittest had no
utilities for this. Event::MouseWheel is error prone. This adds support
for some accesskit scroll actions, and uses this in kittest to add
helpers to scroll to a node / scroll the scroll area surrounding a node.
The accesskit code says down/up/left/right `Scrolls by approximately one
screen in a specific direction.`. Unfortunately it's difficult to get
the size of a "screen" (I guess that would be the size of the containing
scroll area)where I implemented the scrolling, so for now I've hardcoded
it to 100px. I think scrolling a fixed amount is still better than not
scrolling at all.
