Container:border-width caused the x/y coords converted to iters to be
offset inwards by that width, breaking positioning/selecting by gesture.
So, subtract :border-width in widget_to_text_window_coords(). This fixes
gesture positions, & plays fine with :margin & CSS margin/border/padding
N.B.: This is not to endorse :border-width. It’s gone in GTK+ 4 & weird
on a TextView: it’d be more intuitive to – if you must! – set it on the
TV parent. Really, please just use CSS instead. Still, it’s easy to fix.

The GTK_TEXT_WINDOW_PRIVATE enumeration value is really *not* private.
Internally, it's used as a simple "invalid value" marker, and
application and library developers are supposed to use it as such in
their own code.
Let's just document it, and since the GtkTextView documentation and
internals go a long way to state the fact that it should not be used as
an argument value, let's add some pre-condition checks as well.
This commit fixes GtkSourceView's use of GTK_TEXT_WINDOW_PRIVATE as
default value for a GObject property that was broken by the change in
glib-mkenums to honor the `/*< public >*/` and `/*< private >*/`
trigraphs.
The TextIter is passed by pointer for efficiency. We neither need to
modify it, nor should we leave it possible to accidentally do so. So,
it should be passed as a pointer-to-const.
We do not need to go through the heavyweight process of constructing a
TextLineDisplay just to get the direction out of it, when we can simply
use TextIter API to get the text and then get its direction using Pango.

Using Ctrl + left/right to skip between words, or left/right to cancel a
selection, were causing movement on the screen in the opposite direction
of the glyph on the key. This was surprising and awful UX for RTL users.
This is based on a patch covering the former case by:

adds a paragraph to gtk_text_view_get_pixels_below_lines(),
describing how it can be used together with
gtk_text_view_get_pixels_above_lines() to get the total
amount of line spacing between two paragraphs.

That would imply the pixelcache monitors the style context for changes
and it doesn't do that.
Its only use case was opacity checks, so add
gtk_pixel_cache_se_is_opaque() instead.
A problem that has been observed in polari is that links in tags
are clickable all the way into the margin. This problem is caused
by gtk_text_view_get_iter_at_position ignoring the return value
of pango_layout_xy_to_index. Instead, pass it back as a boolean
return value. This is technically an API break, but we've allowed
ourselves to change return types from void to gboolean before.
The text view draw function was leaving its cairo context
with a transformation after drawing to all the border windows,
which lead mis-drawing in gitg. Avoid this by moving the
gtk_cairo_transform_to_window call inside the existing
cairo_save/restore calls.

Derived classes like GtkSourceView with their own ::key-event
handler need access to this, in order to make their keynav
as nice as the builtin one, wrt to caret visibility.

Instead of having old and new style, now have a GtkCssStyleChange opaque
object that will compute the changes you are interested in for you.
This simplifies change signal handlers quite a bit and avoids lots of
repeated computation in every signal handler.
Use the text CSS node for rendering text, and the selection node
for rendering selected text, avoid gtk_style_context_save, update
states of all CSS nodes, and use the proper states when querying
style properties.
Use a CSS node with name selection, like we do for entries
and labels. Unlike those widgets, we currently don't user
gtk_render_background, but just use the background color.
That will require more effort.
When I added the draw_layer vfunc it accidentally got passed a cairo_t
that was configured with to draw in the viewport coordinate space (rather
than the buffer coordinate space). This makes things unnecessary complex,
because you have to convert between the two.
The pixel cache is shared between the text and the layers, so there is
no way to use draw_layer to get a stationary overlay effect. Thus it makes
much more sense for the draw_layer vfunc to draw in the buffer space.
Just changing this would break ABI for existing code, so this is fixed
by adding new layer types and deprecating the old ones.
Also, we use the new layer types to fix gtk3-widget-factory.

Otherwise the popopver will be automatically unmapped in
_gtk_popover_update_child_visible() when the X axis (coming more
or less directly from events) goes outside the textview.
We are passing widget coordinates to gtk_text_view_window_to_buffer_coords()
which expects coordinates to be relative to the text window in this case.
This may result in drop coordinates being displaced if the side windows to
the top/left sides are visible and taking space, so the DnD indicator will
point to the wrong position.
This can be seen on gnome-builder and gedit when displaying line numbers.
These days exposure happens only on the native windows (generally the
toplevel window) and is propagated down recursively. The expose event
is only useful for backwards compat, and in fact, for double buffered
widgets we totally ignore the event (and non-double buffering breaks
on wayland).
So, by not setting the mask we avoid emitting these events and then
later ignoring them.
We still keep it on eventbox, fixed and layout as these are used
in weird ways that want backwards compat.
