Minor Changes

• #3505 ae9a9983e8bd8b63c3873000531a8307e22c7bae Thanks @diegomura! - Experimental pagination engine, opt-in per page

  A new pagination engine ships alongside the current one: content is
  measured once and packed into pages instead of relayouting on every split,
  making long documents paginate orders of magnitude faster (a 300-page
  document drops from ~40s to ~200ms).

  Opt in with <Page experimentalPagination> — any page opting in switches
  the whole document. The default behavior is unchanged.

  Under the new engine:

  • <Page layout={Layout}> renders per-page chrome (headers, footers,
    sidebars) around the content. The layout component receives
    { pageNumber, totalPages, subPageNumber, subPageTotalPages } and the
    page content as children, and runs once per output page. Using layout
    implies experimentalPagination.
  • One fixed semantic: in-flow fixed elements repeat at the top of every
    page they span; footers are the layout's job.
  • minPresenceAhead is supported, with one refinement: a trailing element
    with nothing after it stays in place instead of moving to its own page.

  The current engine remains the default until the next major, when the new
  engine takes over.
