Philipp Krüger a11bd021cd feat(pptx): export documents as editable PowerPoint presentations
New designcraft-pptx crate (L3) and file.exportPptx command (File ›
Export PowerPoint…, CLI --export x.pptx). Each page becomes a slide of
native objects: shapes with fills, gradients, strokes and effects,
pictures cropped like their frames, native tables, and text boxes.

Text keeps DesignCraft's composition by default: composed lines end in
line breaks, justified spacing becomes character spacing, and leading
becomes percentage line spacing (PowerPoint rounds exact spacing to
whole points; its 100% line is 1.2 em for every font). Threaded
stories split at their frames and wrapped lines get their own boxes.
lineBreaks: reflow writes one box per frame in native columns instead.

TrueType fonts are embedded as Embedded OpenType when their licences
allow. Objects PowerPoint can't represent (placed PDF/EPS, type on a
path, some effects) are rasterised through the existing
rasterize_where path.

Checked in PowerPoint for Mac and LibreOffice: on the sample magazine,
word positions match DesignCraft's PDF to within 0.8 pt horizontally
and 1.6 pt vertically.
