In that specific wrapping mode, it will first try a normal word wrap. If
it doesn't fit within the specified line width it will discard the
result of that and try WrapAnywhere by calling layout_helper()
recursively. The problem was that at the point it called itself again it
had already adjusted eng->maxWidth:
eng->maxWidth += line.textWidth;
This was not restored, but carried on to the recursive call to
layout_helper(), so the end result was that the maximumWidth would
accumulate text widths from parts of the same line twice.
Due to the same recursive behavior the minimumWidth also had a problem:
It always returned the width of the widest word because it took the
qMax() of the minimum widths of the two passes, (WordWrap and then
WrapAnywhere) effectively making the minimum width always be the width
of the widest word (even though it could wrap at finer granularity).
