gramps/gui/utilscairo.py:
new file, currently holds just the warpPath() function,
taken from /usr/share/doc/python-cairo/examples/warpedtext.py,
with explanatory docs added.
gramps/gui/widgets/fanchart.py, class FanChartBaseWidget:
draw_text() method:
previous logic using cairo toy text API didn't support CTL text.
It has been removed, and replaced with a call to a new
method, draw_arc_text().
Flagged a subtle Unicode issue in the remaining old code,
for radial-oriented text, with a FIXME, I'll probably fix it
later as a separate issue.
create_map_rect_to_sector() static method:
create a transform to use with gui.utilscairo.warpPath(),
currently used in draw_arc_text().
Following Benny's code review I have annotated the algorithm
and made it hopefully clear, but I guess it could be reworked
into a better form if re-expressed with stacked transforms /
complex numbers / matrices for easier later maintenance.
Meanwhile I have used the same approach as the older code
in the file, good enough for a patch under this feature request.
The only issue remaining from the code review is whether
the create_map_rect_to_sector() function should be moved
to gui.utilscairo; see the bug thread.
