The comment appears as a tooltip when hovering over the annotation.
A couple of properties of the TextEditor would ideally be set in GML,
but either don't have a setter exposed, or the GML compiler doesn't
recognise the enum. I'll fix those up after the current big GML
compiler PR gets merged.
Allow the user to highlight sections of the edited document, giving them
arbitrary background colors. These annotations can be created from a
selection, or by manually specifying the start and end offsets.
Annotations can be edited or deleted by right-clicking them.
Any color can be used for the background. Dark colors automatically make
the text white for easier readability. When creating a new annotation,
we use whatever color the user last picked as this is slightly more
likely to be the one they want.

This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:
$ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
$ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;
s/deprecated_string/byte_string/g' $xs
$ clang-format --style=file -i \
$(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
That's what this class really is; in fact that's what the first line of
the comment says it is.
This commit does not rename the main files, since those will contain
other time-related classes in a little bit.
This function is made from what composed `set_file()` (which now calls
the new function). It allows to create a `HexDocumentFile` without
calling the hackish `set_file(move(m_file))`.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
To support editing of large files it is an advantage to not load the
entire file into memory but only load whatever is needed for display at
the moment. To make it work, file access is abstracted into a socalled
HexDocument, of which there two: a memory based and a file based one.
The former can be used for newly created documents, the latter for file
based editing.
Hex documents now do track changes instead of the HexEditor. HexEditor
only sets new values. This frees HexEditor of some responsibility.
