Appearance text in a simple font was measured with Helvetica's widths,
whatever the font: a bold or Times caption or value came out narrower
than drawn, so centered and right-aligned text slid right of where it
belongs. Text is now measured with the font's /Widths, or a standard
font's published widths.
Button appearances always drew the caption in regular Helvetica, sized
from the button's height, whatever the field's /DA asked for: DA Form
31's 'Attachments Menu' (9 pt bold) came out at 4 pt. The caption now
takes the /DA's font from the form's /DR, its size (an automatic size
still fits the button) and its color, as text fields already do.
* M6: make list boxes directly selectable and scroll to selection (#1524)
- In-place selection: List boxes are rendered directly on the page and
selectable in place. Clicking an option row selects it immediately;
Ctrl/Cmd-clicking toggles items in multi-select lists, and Shift-clicking
selects ranges, without opening a popup menu.
- Appearance and scroll (/TI): When options are selected, /TI (top index)
is automatically adjusted so the selected items are scrolled into view
within the widget's visible rows, and option rows and selection highlights
are drawn into the appearance stream.
- Unit and UI tests: Added tests in pdfcraft-forms verifying /TI scrolling
and appearance generation for multi-select lists, and UI tests in
pdfcraft-ui-egui covering in-place click and Ctrl-click toggling.
Also ensured test harness in reload.rs explicitly sets language to en.
Fixes#1524
* List boxes: keep the engine's page appearance, consume arrow keys
Drop the overpaint of every fillable list box with an egui mock (it ignored the
PDF's fonts, colours and /MK /R; the engine redraws the appearance with the new
/TI), and consume ArrowUp/ArrowDown in the list overlay so they don't also
scroll the page.

Auto-size fields (`0 Tf`, often inherited from the AcroForm /DA) fit their
value to the box in the page appearance, but the in-place editor and the
preview shown before the page re-renders ignored it: they used a fixed guess
from the box height, never shrank to the width and never wrapped multiline
text, so long values ran past the box and were clipped.
The fit now lives in one place, `appearance::auto_text_size_by` (re-exported
as `field_auto_text_size_by`). The page appearance measures with Helvetica;
the screen measures with the interface font it draws in, which is wider and
breaks lines differently, so the text stays inside the box on screen too. The
editor wraps at the same scaled width the size was fitted to. Explicit sizes
are unchanged and still clip, as in Acrobat.
Tests: forms auto_text_size_fits_single_and_multiline_text (incl. NaN/inf/
negative boxes and a NaN measurer); ui-egui
auto_size_fields_shrink_and_wrap_typed_text_to_fit_their_box (fails with the
old on-screen sizing restored).

* M14: text the fonts can't draw is kept and reported, never written as ? silently
Form values and captions, text boxes, callouts, Fill & Sign text, measurement labels and stamp by-lines keep text the standard fonts can't draw, draw ? for it, mark the annotation (PCUndrawn) and report the edit (interface notice, tools' warnings); forms set /NeedAppearances (not in PDF/A). Flattening, redaction overlay text, typed and visible signatures and create-from-text refuse instead. Reports escape such characters as [U+XXXX].
* Catalogs: the two new can't-draw messages in Czech, Slovene, Kazakh, Turkish and Greek; refresh hashes

* M6: rotate form field widgets with /MK /R
Filling or restyling a rotated field redrew its text upright. Appearances now follow /MK /R, and Field Properties and form_set_props can set the rotation.

* M6.2: form fields in Unicode CID fonts show Japanese instead of "?"
Japanese forms often give their fields a /DA font that /DR defines as a Type0
font with a predefined Unicode CMap, such as a non-embedded HeiseiMin-W3 with
/UniJIS-UCS2-H. Field appearances accepted only simple fonts, so they fell back
to Helvetica and WinAnsi, and every Japanese character was drawn as "?".
Appearances now use such fonts and encode the text in the CMap's form (UCS-2,
UTF-16, UTF-8 or UTF-32), measuring full-width characters as one em so centring,
auto size, comb cells and multiline wrapping fit. Identity-H and embedded CMaps
still fall back to Helvetica.

* M6.2: vertical Unicode CMaps fall back to Helvetica, since field appearances are horizontal

Japanese forms often name a check box's on state in Shift-JIS (「はい」 is
/#82#CD#82#A2). State names were read with from_utf8_lossy, so ticking such a
box wrote a different name to /AS and /V, no appearance matched, and the box
was drawn with no mark (or not at all).
Names now map to text losslessly (forms::name_text / name_bytes: UTF-8 as
itself, other bytes and `#` as #XX) wherever states and values are read and
written: /V, /DV and /AS, PdfCraft's own state appearances, and FDF import and
export, so such values also survive an FDF or XFDF round trip.

The app, crates, binaries, bundle id, packaging, icons, screenshots and docs are now
PdfCraft / pdfcraft (repo storytold/pdfcraft). On first launch the desktop app moves the
PrintCraft settings and crash-recovery folders to the new name, and both apps read settings
saved under the old storage key, so upgrades keep recent files, preferences and unsaved work.
The signing test fixtures keep their PrintCraft subject names (they are binary).

Field Properties > Options > Check Box Style (Button Style for radio
buttons): Check, Circle, Cross, Diamond, Square or Star, as Acrobat
offers. The choice is stored in each widget's /MK /CA with Acrobat's
ZapfDingbats codes (4 l 8 u n H), so other viewers draw the same mark,
and PrintCraft draws it as paths, needing no symbol font. Styles set
by other apps are read back too; the defaults stay a check for check
boxes and a circle for radio buttons.
- forms: CheckStyle, check_style(), FieldProps::check_style; set_props
writes /MK /CA (resolving an indirect /MK so its colours survive) and
redraws; text and choice fields refuse a style.
- engine: Document::field_check_style.
- automation: form_set_props takes check_style, form_fields reports it.
