The selected region in HexEditor is indicated by rendering a different
background color for the selected bytes.
Previously this background was rendered so that the background
rectangles were not contigous between different rows. This caused a high
contrast pattern that interfered with the readability of the hexadecimal
digits.
Now the background is rendered as a single contiguous block.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
Apologies for the enormous commit, but I don't see a way to split this
up nicely. In the vast majority of cases it's a simple change. A few
extra places can use TRY instead of manual error checking though. :^)
When a file is opened and scrolled to some position and the user opens
another file, the current scroll position stays the same. That's
disorienting. Therefore, when opening another file, scroll back to the
top.
To support editing of large files it is an advantage to not load the
entire file into memory but only load whatever is needed for display at
the moment. To make it work, file access is abstracted into a socalled
HexDocument, of which there two: a memory based and a file based one.
The former can be used for newly created documents, the latter for file
based editing.
Hex documents now do track changes instead of the HexEditor. HexEditor
only sets new values. This frees HexEditor of some responsibility.
For better visibility of wether the editing focus is on the hex or the
ascii view, render a blinking caret instead of a solid cell background.
For that to work, it's also necessary to change the way selection works.
The selection shouldn't extend to the current position but up to the
byte before it.
find_and_highlight() selected +1 too many bytes.
'Select All' selected +1 too many bytes past the end of
the buffer.
Status bar 'Selected Bytes' count was off by -1 when more
than zero bytes were selected.

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

I hereby declare these to be full nouns that we don't split,
neither by space, nor by underscore:
- Breadcrumbbar
- Coolbar
- Menubar
- Progressbar
- Scrollbar
- Statusbar
- Taskbar
- Toolbar
This patch makes everything consistent by replacing every other variant
of these with the proper one. :^)
(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
This API was a mostly gratuitous deviation from POSIX that gave up some
portability in exchange for avoiding the occasional strlen().
I don't think that was actually achieving anything valuable, so let's
just chill out and have the same open() API as everyone else. :^)
