We were transforming coordinates for SVG gradients in a pretty
convoluted way: an inverse, unscaled transformation matrix was set up in
order to work around some (old?) technical limitations.
Rework this so the coordinate transformation no longer needs to be
inversed. This fixes gradients with "userSpaceOnUse" for its
gradientUnits attribute, which might cause coordinates to lie outside of
the bounding box of the gradient.
Two tests have updated reference screenshots with minor pixel updates;
this is probably the result of floating point precision improvements by
not inversing the matrix.
One test (svg-text-effects) has a bigger change: the gradient stops seem
to have moved along the text. This does seem to match other browsers
slightly better, so I'm moving forward with this ref update.
Since SVG gradients can reference each other, we have to keep track of
visited gradients when traversing the link chain, or we will recurse
infinitely when there's a reference cycle.
This commit removes DeprecatedString's "null" state, and replaces all
its users with one of the following:
- A normal, empty DeprecatedString
- Optional<DeprecatedString>
Note that null states of DeprecatedFlyString/StringView/etc are *not*
affected by this commit. However, DeprecatedString::empty() is now
considered equal to a null StringView.
This is the base class for all SVG gradient types. This supports:
- The `gradientUnits` attribute
- The `gradientTransform` attribute
- And following `xlink:hrefs` for inheriting <stops>/attributes
