## Summary of the Pull Request
This is the plan that @miniksa suggested to me. Instead of trying to do lots of work in all the renderers to do backgrounds as one pass, and foregrounds as another, we can localize this change to basically just the DX renderer.
1. First, we give the DX engine a "heads up" on where the cursor is going to be drawn during the frame, in `PrepareRenderInfo`.
- This function is left unimplemented in the other render engines.
2. While printing runs of text, the DX renderer will try to paint the cursor in `CustomTextRenderer::DrawGlyphRun` INSTEAD of `DxEngine::PaintCursor`. This lets us weave the cursor background between the text background and the text.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Renderer: Add support for backoff and auto-disable on failed retry
This commit introduces a backoff (150ms * number of tries) to the
renderer's retry logic (introduced in #2830). It also changes the
FAIL_FAST to a less globally-harmful render thread disable, so that we
stop blowing up any application hosting a terminal when the graphics
driver goes away.
In addition, it adds a callback that a Renderer consumer can use to
determine when the renderer _has_ failed, and a public method to kick it
back into life.
Fixes#5340.
This PR also wires up TermControl so that it shows some UI when the renderer tastes clay.

I tested this by dropping the number of retries to 1 and forcing a TDR while doing `wsl cmatrix -u0`. It picked up exactly where it left off.
As a bonus, you can actually still type into the terminal when it's graphically suspended (and `exit` still works.). The block is _entirely graphical_.

Adjusts DirectX renderer to use `til::bitmap` to track invalidation

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- Applies `til::bitmap` as the new invalidation scheme inside the
DirectX renderer and updates all entrypoints for collecting
invalidation data to coalesce into this structure.
- Semi-permanently routes all invalidations through a helper method
`_InvalidateRectangle` that will expand any invalidation to cover the
entire line. This ensures that ligatures and NxM glyphs will continue
to render appropriately while still allowing us to dramatically reduce
the number of lines drawn overall. In the future, we may come up with
a tighter solution than line-by-line invalidation and can modify this
helper method appropriately at that later date to further scope the
invalid region.
- Ensures that the `experimental.retroTerminalEffects` feature continues
to invalidate the entire display on start of frame as the shader is
applied at the end of the frame composition and will stack on itself
in an amusing fashion when we only redraw part of the display.
- Moves many member variables inside the DirectX renderer into the new
`til::size`, `til::point`, and `til::rectangle` methods to facilitate
easier management and mathematical operations. Consequently adds
`try/catch` blocks around many of the already-existing `noexcept`
methods to deal with mathematical or casting failures now detected by
using the support classes.
- Corrects `TerminalCore` redraw triggers to appropriately communicate
scrolling circumstances to the renderer so it can optimize the draw
regions appropriately.
- Fixes an issue in the base `Renderer` that was causing overlapping
scroll regions due to behavior of `Viewport::TrimToViewport` modifying
the local. This fix is "good enough" for now and should go away when
`Viewport` is fully migrated to `til::rectangle`.
- Adds multiplication and division operators to `til::rectangle` and
supporting tests. These operates will help scale back and forth
between a cell-based rectangle and a pixel-based rectangle. They take
special care to ensure that a pixel rectangle being divided downward
back to cells will expand (with the ceiling division methods) to cover
a full cell when even one pixel inside the cell is touched (as is how
a redraw would have to occur).
- Blocks off trace logging of invalid regions if no one is listening to
optimize performance.
- Restores full usage of `IDXGISwapChain1::Present1` to accurately and
fully communicate dirty and scroll regions to the underlying DirectX
framework. This additional information allows the framework to
optimize drawing between frames by eliminating data transfer of
regions that aren't modified and shuffling frames in place. See
[Remarks](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/dxgi1_2/nf-dxgi1_2-idxgiswapchain1-present1#remarks)
for more details.
- Updates `til::bitmap` set methods to use more optimized versions of
the setters on the `dynamic_bitset<>` that can bulk fill bits as the
existing algorithm was noticeably slow after applying the
"expand-to-row" helper to the DirectX renderer invalidation.
- All `til` import hierarchy is now handled in the parent `til.h` file
and not in the child files to prevent circular imports from happening.
We don't expect the import of any individual library file, only the
base one. So this should be OK for now.
## Validation Steps Performed
- Ran `cmatrix`, `cmatrix -u0`, and `cacafire` after changes were made.
- Made a bunch of ligatures with `Cascadia Code` in the Terminal
before/after the changes and confirmed they still ligate.
- Ran `dir` in Powershell and fixed the scrolling issues
- Clicked all over the place and dragged to make sure selection works.
- Checked retro terminal effect manually with Powershell.
## Summary of the Pull Request
Moves the ConPTY drawing mechanism (`VtRenderer`) to use the fine-grained `til::bitmap` individual-dirty-bit tracking mechanism instead of coarse-grained rectangle unions to improve drawing performance by dramatically reducing the total area redrawn.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- Converted `GetDirtyArea()` interface from `IRenderEngine` to use a vector of `til::rectangle` instead of the `SMALL_RECT` to banhammer inclusive rectangles.
- `VtEngine` now holds and operates on the `til::bitmap` for invalidation regions. All invalidation operation functions that used to be embedded inside `VtEngine` are deleted in favor of using the ones in `til::bitmap`.
- Updated `VtEngine` tracing to use new `til::bitmap` on trace and the new `to_string()` methods detailed below.
- Comparison operators for `til::bitmap` and complementary tests.
- Fixed an issue where the dirty rectangle shortcut in `til::bitmap` was set to 0,0,0,0 by default which means that `|=` on it with each `set()` operation was stretching the rectangle from 0,0. Now it's a `std::optional` so it has no value after just being cleared and will build from whatever the first invalidated rectangle is. Complementary tests added.
- Optional run caching for `til::bitmap` in the `runs()` method since both VT and DX renderers will likely want to generate the set of runs at the beginning of a frame and refer to them over and over through that frame. Saves the iteration and creation and caches inside `til::bitmap` where the chance of invalidation of the underlying data is known best. It is still possible to iterate manually with `begin()` and `end()` from the outside without caching, if desired. Complementary tests added.
- WEX templates added for `til::bitmap` and used in tests.
- `translate()` method for `til::bitmap` which will slide the dirty points in the direction specified by a `til::point` and optionally back-fill the uncovered area as dirty. Complementary tests added.
- Moves all string generation for `til` types `size`, `point`, `rectangle`, and `some` into a `to_string` method on each object such that it can be used in both ETW tracing scenarios AND in the TAEF templates uniformly. Adds a similar method for `bitmap`.
- Add tagging to `_bitmap_const_iterator` such that it appears as a valid **Input Iterator** to STL collections and can be used in a `std::vector` constructor as a range. Adds and cleans up operators on this iterator to match the theoretical requirements for an **Input Iterator**. Complementary tests added.
- Add loose operators to `til` which will allow some basic math operations (+, -, *, /) between `til::size` and `til::point` and vice versa. Complementary tests added. Complementary tests added.
- Adds operators to `til::rectangle` to allow scaling with basic math operations (+, -, *) versus `til::size` and translation with basic math operations (+, -) against `til::point`. Complementary tests added.
- In-place variants of some operations added to assorted `til` objects. Complementary tests added.
- Update VT tests to compare invalidation against the new map structure instead of raw rectangles where possible.
## Validation Steps Performed
- Wrote additional til Unit Tests for all additional operators and functions added to the project to support this operation
- Updated the existing VT renderer tests
- Ran perf check
## Summary of the Pull Request
This changes the renederer to make sure to not draw the cursor when it is placed outside the viewport. When the window height isn't an exact multiple of a row's height, then there's a little bit of space below the last line we're actually drawing. If cursor is on the line below the viewport, then it can actually get drawn into this space. Since we're not drawing the text for that line, this is a little odd.
This PR fixes the issue by simply ensuring the cursor is in the veiwport before we draw it.

Checked with the GDI renderer as well as the DX renderer in conhost to make sure this is fixed for both of them, as well as the Terminal
cmatrix is somewhat of a pathological case for our infrastructure: it
prints out a bunch of green and white characters and then updates them a
million times a second.
It also maintains a column of space between every green character. When
it prints this column, it prints it in "default" or "white". This ends
up making runs of text that look like this:
(def: G=green B=bright white W=white *=matrix char =space)
G W G W G W G W G W G W G W G W
G W G W G W G W G W G W G W G W

Every one of those color transitions causes us to break up the run of
text and start rendering it again. This impacts GDI, Direct2D *and*
ConPTY. In the example above, there are 120 runs.
The problem is, printing a space doesn't **use** the foreground color!
This commit introduces an optimization. When we're about to break a text
cluster because its attributes changed, we make sure that it's not just
filled with spaces and doesn't differ in any visually-meaningful way
(like underline or strikethrough, considering global invert state).
This lets us optimize both the rendering _and_ the PTY output to look
like this:
G* * * * * * * B*G
G* * * * * * *
G* * * B*G * * *
G* B*G * * * * *
G* * * B*G * *
B*G * * B*G *
G * * B*G
G B*G *
Text will be printed at best line-by-line and at worst only when the
visible properties of the screen actually change. In the example
above, there are only 21 runs.
This speeds up cmatrix remarkably.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- Some of my ideas for the `DxEngine` require the ability to specify multiple smaller rectangles instead of one giant one, specifically to mitigate the case where someone refreshes just one cell in two opposite corners of the display (which currently coalesces into refreshing the entire display.)

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
I started with the following implementation:
When conpty is about to write the last column, note that we wrapped this line here. If the next character the vt renderer is told to paint get is supposed to be at the start of the following line, then we know that the previous line had wrapped, so we _won't_ emit the usual `\r\n` here, and we'll just continue emitting text.
However, this isn't _exactly_ right - if someone fills the row _exactly_ with text, the information that's available to the vt renderer isn't enough to know for sure if this line broke or not. It is possible for the client to write a full line of text, with a `\n` at the end, to manually break the line. So, I had to also add the `lineWrapped` param to the `IRenderEngine` interface, which is about half the files in this changelist.
## Validation Steps Performed
* Ran tests
* Checked how the Windows Terminal behaves with these changes
* Made sure that conhost/inception and gnome-terminal both act as you'd expect with wrapped lines from conpty
## Summary of the Pull Request
- Height adjustment of a glyph is now restricted to itself in the DX
renderer instead of applying to the entire run
- ConPTY compensates for drawing the right half of a fullwidth
character. The entire render base has this behavior restored now as
well.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Two issues:
1. On the DirectX renderer side, when confronted with shrinking a glyph,
the correction code would apply the shrunken size to the entire run, not
just the potentially individual glyph that needed to be reduced in size.
Unfortunately while adjusting the horizontal X width can be done for
each glyph in a run, the vertical Y height has to be adjusted for an
entire run. So the solution here was to split the individual glyph
needing shrinking out of the run into its own run so it can be shrunk.
2. On the ConPTY side, there was a long standing TODO that was never
completed to deal with a request to draw only the right half of a
two-column character. This meant that when encountering a request for
the right half only, we would transmit the entire full character to be
drawn, left and right halves, struck over the right half position. Now
we correct the cursor back a position (if space) and draw it out so the
right half is struck over where we believe the right half should be (and
the left half is updated as well as a consequence, which should be OK.)
The reason this happens right now is because despite VIM only updating
two cells in the buffer, the differential drawing calculation in the
ConPTY is very simplistic and intersects only rectangles. This means
from the top left most character drawn down to the row/col cursor count
indicator in vim's modeline are redrawn with each character typed. This
catches the line below the edited line in the typing and refreshes it.
But incorrectly.
We need to address making ConPTY smarter about what it draws
incrementally as it's clearly way too chatty. But I plan to do that with
some of the structures I will be creating to solve #778.
## Validation Steps Performed
- Ran the scenario listed in #2191 in vim in the Terminal
- Added unit tests similar to examples given around glyph/text mapping
in runs from Microsoft community page

Moves the tests from using the `vstest.console.exe` route to just using `te.exe`.
PROs:
- `te.exe` is significantly faster for running tests because the TAEF/VSTest adapter isn't great.
- Running through `te.exe` is closer to what our developers are doing on their dev boxes
- `te.exe` is how they run in the Windows gates.
- `te.exe` doesn't seem to have the sporadic `0x6` error code thrown during the tests where somehow the console handles get lost
- `te.exe` doesn't seem to repro the other intermittent issues that we have been having that are inscrutable.
- Fewer processes in the tree (te is running anyway under `vstest.console.exe`, just indirected a lot
- The log outputs scroll live with all our logging messages instead of suppressing everything until there's a failure
- The log output is actually in the order things are happening versus vstest.
CONs:
- No more code coverage.
- No more test records in the ADO build/test panel.
- Tests really won't work inside Visual Studio at all.
- The log files are really big now
- Testing is not a test task anymore, just another script.
Refuting each CON:
- We didn't read the code coverage numbers
- We didn't look at the ADO test panel results or build-over-build velocities
- Tests didn't really work inside Visual Studio anyway unless you did the right incantations under the full moon.
- We could tone down the logging if we wanted at either the te.exe execution time (with a switch) or by declaring properties in the tests/classes/modules that are very verbose to not log unless it fails.
- I don't think anyone cares how they get run as long as they do.

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR adds two tests:
* First, I started by writing a test where I could write output to the console host and inspect what output came out of conpty. This is the `ConptyOutputTests` in the host unit tests.
* Then I got crazy and thought _"what if I could take that output and dump it straight into the `Terminal`"_? Hence, the `ConptyRoundtripTests` were born, into the TerminalCore unit tests.

Also, some other bits had to be updated:
* The renderer needed to be able to survive without a thread, so I hadded a simple check that it actually had a thread before calling `pThread->NotifyPaint`
* Bits in `CommonState` used `NTSTATUS_FROM_HRESULT` which did _not_ work outside the host project. Since the `NTSTATUS` didn't seem that important, I replaced that with a `HRESULT`
* `CommonState` likes to initialize the console to some _weird_ defaults. I added an optional param to let us just use the defaults.
## Summary of the Pull Request
Adds support for Italics, Blinking, Invisible, CrossedOut text, THROUGH CONPTY. This does **NOT** add support for those styles to conhost or the terminal.
We will store these "Extended Text Attributes" in a `TextAttribute`. When we go to render a line, we'll see if the state has changed from our previous state, and if so, we'll appropriately toggle that state with VT. Boldness has been moved from a `bool` to a single bit in these flags.
Technically, now that these are stored in the buffer, we only need to make changes to the renderers to be able to support them. That's not being done as a part of this PR however.

If _PaintFrameForEngine returns E_PENDING, we'll give it another two
tries to get itself straight. If it continues to fail, we'll take down
the application.
We observed that the DX renderer was failing to present the swap chain
and failfast'ing when it did so; however, there are some errors from
which DXGI guidance suggests we try to recover. We'll now return
E_PENDING (and destroy our device resources) when we hit those errors.
Fixes#2265.
