TUI: Overflow is not working

[Pop]

Problem

Long text is not hidden or trimmed properly according to overflow attribute, which will cause out-of-boundry panic.

Steps To Reproduce

Code:

fn main() {
    dioxus_tui::launch(|cx| {
        cx.render(rsx!{
            div {
                "overflow": "hidden",
                "------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
            }
        })
    });
}

Expected behavior

Text should be trimmed or wrapped when length is greater than container's width.

Good catch. It looks like the text rendering in https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/blob/master/packages/tui/src/render.rs#L66 ignores the size of the layout right now. We have code that parses overflow for stretch2 in the attributes file, but stretch2 never uses it. We can add a field for it in the TuiNode for overflow and use it in the renderer.
Edit: stretch allows specifying a measure function we might be able to use for wrapping to allow the changes to effect the rest of the layout
