Return value of LineBoxBuilder::lineContent is not a reference

[Michael Catanzaro]

The return value of LineBoxBuilder::lineContent looks probably incorrect:

const LineBuilder::LineContent lineContent() const { return m_lineContent; }

If it was intended to return a copy, then it would surely return a non-const LineBuilder::LineContent, so I think this should probably be changed to:

const LineBuilder::LineContent& lineContent() const { return m_lineContent; }

But I have not checked to see if this change would be safe. I noticed due to this false-positive GCC 13 warning:

It looks bad, but I don't think it's a real problem because although lineContent() is itself invalid after this statement, lineContent().runs[listMarkerBoxIndex] should still be valid.

hah, indeed. That's very silly. Thank you! Let me quickly fix that.
