Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/79495
This is basically a reland of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/79607.
Currently when the cursor is invalid, arrow key navigation / typing / backspacing doesn't work since the cursor position is unknown.
Showing the cursor when the selection is invalid gives the user the wrong information about the current insert point in the text.
This is going to break internal golden tests.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/131435, https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/104594, https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/43400
Currently the method we use for text span hit testing `TextPainter.getPositionForOffset` always returns the closest `TextPosition`, even when the given offset is far away from the text.
The new TextPaintes method tells you the layout bounds `(width = letterspacing / 2 + x_advance + letterspacing / 2, height = font ascent + font descent)` of a character, the PR changes the hit testing implementation such that a TextSpan is only considered hit if the point-down event landed in one of its character's layout bounds.
Potential issues:
In theory since the text is baseline aligned, we should use the max ascent and max descent of each character to calculate the height of the text span's hit-test region, in case some characters in the span have to fall back to a different font, but that will be slower and it typically doesn't make a huge difference.
This is a breaking change.

Original Description:
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/131435, #104594, #43400
Needs https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/48774 (to fix the web test failure).
Currently the method we use for text span hit testing `TextPainter.getPositionForOffset` always returns the closest `TextPosition`, even when the given offset is far away from the text.
The new TextPaintes method tells you the layout bounds (`width = letterspacing / 2 + x_advance + letterspacing / 2`, `height = font ascent + font descent`) of a character, the PR changes the hit testing implementation such that a TextSpan is only considered hit if the point-down event landed in one of it's character's layout bounds.
Potential issues:
1. In theory since the text is baseline aligned, we should use the max ascent and max descent of each character to calculate the height of the text span's hit-test region, in case some characters in the span have to fall back to a different font, but that will be slower and it typically doesn't make a huge difference.
This is a breaking change. It also introduces a new finder and a new method `WidgetTester.tapOnText`: `await tester.tapOnText('string to match')` for ease of migration.

Some render box subclasses have a specific layout contract that is tightly coupled with other render box subclasses (e.g. two private classes in a local project file). In these cases, it is also possible that they use a constraints object that is a subclass of `BoxConstraints`. To allow for this, this change makes the `constraints` argument to `RenderBox.computeDryLayout()` a covariant argument.
For completeness' sake, this updates the other render objects in the rendering package to also use the covariant keyword for this argument.

This relocates `mock_canvas.dart` and `recording_canvas.dart` from `flutter/test/rendering` to `flutter_test`.
The testing functionality afforded by mock_canvas should be available to everyone, not just the framework. :)
mock_canvas.dart needed a bit of cleanup - things like formatting and super parameters.
Deprecate `textScaleFactor` in favor of `textScaler`, in preparation for Android 14 [Non-linear font scaling to 200%](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/14/features#non-linear-font-scaling). The `TextScaler` class can be moved to `dart:ui` in the future, if we decide to use the Android platform API or AndroidX to get the scaling curve instead of hard coding the curve in the framework.
I haven't put the Flutter version in the deprecation message so the analyzer checks are failing. Will do so after I finish the migration guide.
**Why `TextScaler.textScaleFactor`**
The author of a `TextScaler` subclass should provide a fallback `textScaleFactor`. By making `TextScaler` also contain the `textScaleFactor` information it also makes it easier to migrate: if a widget overrides `MediaQueryData.textScaler` in the tree, for unmigrated widgets in the subtree it would also have to override `MediaQueryData.textScaleFactor`, and that makes it difficult to remove `MediaQueryData.textScaleFactor` in the future.
## A full list of affected APIs in this PR
Deprecated: The method/getter/setter/argument is annotated with a `@Deprecated()` annotation in this PR, and the caller should replace it with `textScaler` instead. Unless otherwise specified there will be a Flutter fix available to help with migration but it's still recommended to migrate case-by-case.
**Replaced**: The method this `textScaleFactor` argument belongs to is rarely called directly by user code and is not overridden by any of the registered custom tests, so the argument is directly replaced by `TextScaler`.
**To Be Deprecated**: The method/getter/setter/argument can't be deprecated in this PR because a registered customer test depends on it and a Flutter fix isn't available (or the test was run without applying flutter fixes first). This method/getter/setter/argument will be deprecated in a followup PR once the registered test is migrated.

A lot of material widgets (`Slider`, `RangeSlider`, `TimePicker`, and different types of buttons) also change their layout based on `textScaleFactor`. These need to be handled in a case-by-case fashion and will be migrated in follow-up PRs.
- Added `InlineWidgetContainerDefaults` for deduping inline widget code
- Added a helper function `WidgetSpan.extractFromInlineSpan` for extracting `WidgetSpan`s and automatically applying text scaling (at widget level)
- Removed `TextPainter.inlinePlaceholderScales`. I'm going to deprecate the `scale` argument in `TextPainter.addPlaceholder` next, as scaling is now done at the widget level.
- Added runtime check and comments to make sure nobody is extending `PlaceholderSpan` directly (unfortunately we can't remove `PlaceholderSpan` without moving RenderEditable and RenderParagraph to the widgets library).
