Split findNextLineBreak into a LineBreaker class

• Component: Layout and Rendering
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Levi Weintraub]

Splitting findNextLineBreak into a separate class will make it much easier to further refactor the giant function by allowing its state to be kept in member variables accessible to new helper functions without having to pass them in giant parameter lists.

Hm... LineBreaker seems like a class of logic, and the actual state will likely end up separate.  Sorta like how BidiStatus is separate from the actual BidiResolver, and the Token is separate from the Tokenizer, etc.  But I think this is moving us in a good direction!

it's not clear what m_hyphenated and m_clear apply to.  I assume the current line, but it would be nice to make that more clear some how.  Again, tha tmay be part of some later state from state-machine split. :)

I would have called this lineBreaker. :)

I wouldn't have bothered moving these from their previous location.

Thanks for the review! I'm going to take both of your suggestions before landing.

Renaming it :)

Fair point. It needlessly clutters blame and all...
