Termina 0.14.0-beta.1

This is the first beta of Termina 0.14.0 — a major internal rework of the rendering lifecycle and layout service infrastructure.

Render Loop Frame Provider (#306)

Added TerminaRenderFrameProvider — a centralized rendering loop that drives frame updates for the application. This replaces ad-hoc rendering triggers with a single, configurable frame loop that applications can opt into via TerminaRuntimeOptions.

• TerminaRenderFrameProvider — New service that manages the application render loop
• TerminaRuntimeOptions — New configuration for render loop settings (frame interval, mode)
• ObservableLayoutExtensions — New extension methods for reactive layout updates tied to frame intervals
• Updated demo apps and tutorials to use the new frame provider pattern

Layout Runtime Context

Added LayoutRuntimeContext — an app-owned layout runtime service that centralizes layout services (timing, frame info, rendering coordination) for all layout nodes. This moves component timing infrastructure onto a single, consistent path.

• LayoutRuntimeContext — New runtime context for app-owned layout nodes
• Component timing — Moved from scattered implementations to centralized runtime context
• Updated all demos, docs, and tests to use the single runtime-services path

Internal Improvements

• Refactored ReactiveViewModel and ReactivePage to work with the new rendering context
• Updated TextInputBaseNode, TextAreaNode, SpinnerNode, and WizardNode to consume runtime context
• Added comprehensive tests for RenderFrameProvider and LayoutRuntimeContext
• Updated tutorials (streaming chat, wizard app) to reflect new patterns
