Adds reference docs, guide in the "Editor" article, and examples for the
side effects manager.
There are 4 new examples:
1. Before create/update shape - constrains shapes to be places within a
circle
2. Before delete shape - prevent red shapes from being deleted
3. After create/update shape - make sure there's only ever one red shape
on the page at a time
4. After delete shape - delete frames after their last child is deleted
As these examples all require fairly specific configurations of shapes
(or are hard to understand without some visual hinting in the case of
placing shapes within a circle), I've included a `createDemoShapes`
function in each of these which makes sure the examples start with
shapes that will quickly show you the side effects in action. I've kept
these separate from the main code (in a function at the bottom), so
hopefully that won't be a source of confusion to anyone working from
these examples.

The border on export preview images was making them get sized wrong.
This fixes that, and adds some padding to these exports so they don't
get clipped.

## Migration path
1. If any of your shapes implement `toSvg` for exports, you'll need to
replace your implementation with a new version that returns JSX (it's a
react component) instead of manually constructing SVG DOM nodes
2. `editor.getSvg` is deprecated. It still works, but will be going away
in a future release. If you still need SVGs as DOM elements rather than
strings, use `new DOMParser().parseFromString(svgString,
'image/svg+xml').firstElementChild`
## The change in detail
At the moment, our SVG exports very carefully try to recreate the
visuals of our shapes by manually constructing SVG DOM nodes. On its own
this is really painful, but it also results in a lot of duplicated logic
between the `component` and `getSvg` methods of shape utils.
In #3020, we looked at using string concatenation & DOMParser to make
this a bit less painful. This works, but requires specifying namespaces
everywhere, is still pretty painful (no syntax highlighting or
formatting), and still results in all that duplicated logic.
I briefly experimented with creating my own version of the javascript
language that let you embed XML like syntax directly. I was going to
call it EXTREME JAVASCRIPT or XJS for short, but then I noticed that we
already wrote the whole of tldraw in this thing called react and a (imo
much worse named) version of the javascript xml thing already existed.
Given the entire library already depends on react, what would it look
like if we just used react directly for these exports? Turns out things
get a lot simpler! Take a look at lmk what you think
This diff was intended as a proof of concept, but is actually pretty
close to being landable. The main thing is that here, I've deliberately
leant into this being a big breaking change to see just how much code we
could delete (turns out: lots). We could if we wanted to make this
without making it a breaking change at all, but it would add back a lot
of complexity on our side and run a fair bit slower

This diff mostly adds an image annotator example, but also has a couple
of drive-by changes:
- Added a 'use-cases' category to the examples app for this style of
mini-app
- Add `editor.pageToViewport`, which is like `editor.pageToScreen` but
works with viewport coordinates (better for `InFrontOfTheCanvas` stuff)
- Prevent the chrome side-swipe-to-go-back thing in the examples app
Some cool features of the image annotator:
- The image cannot be unlocked, and cannot have shapes places behind it
- I still need to work out a way of removing the context menu though
- Anything you place outside the bounds of the image (and therefore
outside the bounds of the export) will be greyed out
- You can't change pages
- unless you find the "move to page" action... need to fix that
- The camera is constrained! It'll keep the image roughly centered on
the screen. If you pick a very long thin image, you can only scroll
vertically. If you pick a very big one, it'll default it to a reasonable
size.

Currently, we only use native `structuredClone` in the browser, falling
back to `JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(...))` elsewhere, despite Node
supporting `structuredClone` [since
v17](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/structuredClone)
and Cloudflare Workers supporting it [since
2022](https://blog.cloudflare.com/standards-compliant-workers-api/).
This PR adjusts our shim to use the native `structuredClone` on all
platforms, if available.
Additionally, `jsdom` doesn't implement `structuredClone`, a bug [open
since 2022](https://github.com/jsdom/jsdom/issues/3363). This PR patches
`jsdom` environment in all packages/apps that use it for tests.
Also includes a driveby removal of `deepCopy`, a function that is
strictly inferior to `structuredClone`.

The probelm was manifesting because our camera updates were not
throttled and our render tick was on a different tick timeline to our
tick manager. Fixing the latter gets rid of the lag without requiring us
to throttle the camera updates.

This PR fixes an issue where events happening on tick were not batched.
We were listening to the `tick` event directly from the state node,
rather than passing the event into the state chart at the top. This
meant that it was bypassing the regular state chart rules, which was
what got me looking at this; but then I noticed that we also weren't
batching the changes, either. This causes computed stuff to re-compute
after each atom is updated within the `onTick` handler, which can be a
LOT.

It's not game breaking but it's important enough to hotfix at least in
the dot com.

### Test Plan

2. Resize them.
### Release Notes
- Fix a performance issue effecting resizing multiple shapes.
This PR is a minor cleanup of the Shape component.
Here we:
- use some dumb memoized info to avoid unnecessary style changes
- move the dpr check up out of the shapes themselves, avoiding renders
on instance state changes
Culled shapes:
- move the props setting on the culled shape component to a layout
reactor
- no longer set the height / width on the culled shape component
- no longer update the culled shape component when the shape changes
Random:
- move the arrow shape defs to the arrow shape util (using that neat API
we didn't used to have)

### Test Plan
1. Use shapes
2. Use culled shapes
### Release Notes
- SDK: minor improvements to the Shape component
This PR makes a few tiny improvements to the way that selection page
bounds and rotated page bounds are calculated.
For bounds, we bail once we find a different rotation among the selected
shapes. Previously, we grabbed all of the rotations first before
comparing them; we only need to grab rotations until we find a rotation
that's different from the first one.
For rotating page bounds, we only look at the corners of the calculated
bounds, and we mutate the resulting points after we transform them.
Previously, we looked at all vertices and make a copy of the points when
rotating them. The transform already creates the copy, so we can mutate
it; and while the bounds are usually calculated from the vertices, using
the corners gives us fewer points to transform.

When we went from overrides-based to component based UI customisation
APIs, we didn't do the toolbar because it had some significant extra
complexity around overflowing the contents of the menu into the
dropdown. This is really hard to do at render-time with react - you
can't introspect what a component will return to move some of it into an
overflow.
Instead, this diff runs that logic in a `useLayoutEffect` - we render
all the items into both the main toolbar and the overflow menu, then in
the effect (or if the rendered components change) we use CSS to remove
the items we don't need, check which was last active, etc. Originally, I
wasn't really into this approach - but i've actually found it to work
super well and be very reliable.

Should fix `At instance.duplicateProps.offset.x: Expected a number, got
NaN` validation errors.
Wasn't able to reproduce. We only assign the offset here, so
`Vec.Averge` is the most likely offender here and for that to happen I
guess `movingShapes` might not contain any shapes.

Steve tried this in #3043, but we reverted it in #3063. Steve's version
added `JSON.parse`/`JSON.stringify` to the helpers without checking for
where we were already `JSON.parse`ing (or not). In some places we just
store strings directly rather than wanting them jsonified, so in this
version we leave the jsonification to the callers - the helpers just do
the reading/writing and return the string values.

This PR removes code that would add a reference to the editor to the
window. This is a feature that we added very early on during testing,
but which we should have moved out of the library earlier. Adding it
here as one of our last PRs before release.
If you've relied on this, you'll need to update your use of the library
to do it manually:
```ts
<Tldraw onMount={(editor) => {
;(window as any).app = editor
;(window as any).editor = editor
}}/>
```
### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change
### Release Notes
- Remove `window.editor` and `window.app` references to editor.
By default, tldraw's brushing mode will select when the box intersects
an shape's geometry. A user can hold Command / Ctrl to require that the
selection box fully contain a shape's bounds instead.
Some people really prefer the opposite. Three years! Three years I've
been saying "no no no".
This PR adds a user preference to flip the logic. When `isWrapMode` is
true, selection requires that the box completely contain a shape before
it's added to the list of selecting shapes; and ctrl flips back to
intersection instead.
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
1. Turn on wrap mode in the user preferences menu.
2. Select stuff.
3. Use the ctrl key to except the behavior back to intersection.

### Testing
It's a bit hard to test this, you actually need to change the code a
bit.
1. Add an `onMount` handler to the `Tldraw` component in `develop.tsx`
2. In the `onMount` handler add:
`editor.updateInstanceState({canMoveCamera: false})` to freeze the
camera.
3. Make sure edge scrolling is turned on in the preferences.
4. Use brush selections / resizing / translating close to the edges.
5. The camera should not move.
### Release Notes
- Don't allow edge scrolling when camera is frozen.
