If shaping can't resolve some glyphs, queue the font locator
fallback resolution to another thread; meanwhile, a last resort
glyph is used.
That thread can trigger an invalidation once the fallback resolve
is complete, the window is invalidated and the last resort glyph
is replaced by the resolve glyph.

Keep track of the glyphs we've already advised about (until the
config is reloaded) so that we don't keep spamming the user.

* Check built-in fonts before asking the system for codepoint coverage
* If one of the earlier stages resolved some fonts, skip the remaining
stages and speculatively shape what we have. This avoids triggering
the system font lookup for fonts that are present in the font_dirs
or that are built-in, such as powerline symbols.

Default `allow_square_glyphs_to_overflow_width="WhenFollowedBySpace"`,
and expand its meaning from mostly square glyphs to glyphs that are
also wider than they are tall.

There's something fishy with colorspaces and blending.
This commit removes the `window::Color` type and replaces
it and the confusing array of color types exposed by the
`palette` crate with a pair of much simpler types:
`LinearRgb` - a tuple of f32 linear color components
`SrgbaPixel` - the u32 sRGBA pixel representation
This doesn't change anything about rendering, it just
makes it a bit simpler and makes the SrgbaPixel -> LinearRgb
conversion happen slightly earlier which shaves off some
ad-hoc conversions.

hoist the underlyine glyph retrieval out of the loop.
Precompute some color conversions (less effective until
the gamma branch is merged).

Switches from using a dynamic vertex buffer to an immutable
vertex buffer. This feels counter-intuitive to me; the purpose
of dynamic is to sustain frequent updates, but mapping the buffer
needs to synchronize with the GPU, and if we are rapidly invalidating
the window that can stall painting by tens of milliseconds.
Switching to an immutable buffer avoids the stall and makes
quad mapping more consistently < 10ms, but its still not
ideal.

* Make window invalidation more efficient by avoiding spawning a call
that spawns a call to invalidate the window. Just directly mark as
invalidated.
* Suppress default background erase
* hoist the bg_color calc for quads that don't have Cells outside of
its loop.

The dwrote crate offers functions that can extract the underlying
font file name(s) from the system, so let's use those to get
OnDisk font handles and save some memory.

I'm not sure what exactly changed (perhaps it was a Windows updated?)
but window_background_opacity was only taking effect for windows
with no title bar.
I found that explicitly configuring a region makes transparency
work again.

In an earlier incarnation of both wezterm and freetype, FT_New_Face
would lead file descriptors into child processes because it didn't
set O_CLOEXEC. That led to the slightly pessimistic approach of
loading the font into memory for the lifetime of the wezterm process.
With the improved fallback handling on macos, this can result in
hundreds of MB of font data being loaded, in some cases multiple
times.
Since those days, freetype now sets O_CLOEXEC and wezterm has some
logic to close other random fds, so the descriptor leaking problem
is gone and we can now let freetype manage a file handle instead
of a memory-baked font.
This reduces the memory utilization by at least 1GB in the case
that a glyphs need to be resolved from the system fallback fonts.

terminus-bold.otb reports 0 height!
Detect and force that case to go through the bitmap strike loading
code path.
Improve the size selection heuristic for bitmap strikes: previously,
we would just pick the largest bitmap and allow it to be scaled down,
which was OK for emoji fonts that just had 128px square glyphs, but
is not ok for pre-rendered pixel strikes like terminus.
Note that IncreaseFontSize works in terms of percentages only,
so using a font like this may have "gaps" when ctrl-+ or - to change
the font size.
