Window: child windows outer decorations (e.g. scrollbar) are rendered as part of their parent window, avoiding the creation of an extraneous draw command.
+ Metrics: inverted color of clip rect vs vertices bounding box when hovering a draw command, so the color matches the per-vertex preview.

Breaking Changes:
- IO: changed AddInputCharacter(unsigned short c) signature to AddInputCharacter(unsigned int c).
- Renamed SetNextTreeNodeOpen() to SetNextItemOpen(). Kept inline redirection function (will obsolete).

- Window: Fixed auto-resize with AlwaysVerticalScrollbar or AlwaysHorizontalScrollbar flags.
- Window: Fixed one case where auto-resize by double-clicking the resize grip would make either scrollbar
appear for a single frame after the resize.

- Separator: Revert 1.70 "Declare its thickness (1.0f) to the layout" change. It's not incorrect
but it breaks existing some layout patterns. Will return back to it when we expose Separator flags.
- Fixed InputScalar, InputScalarN, SliderScalarN, DragScalarN with non-visible label from inserting

- 2019/05/11 (1.71) - changed io.AddInputCharacter(unsigned short c) signature to io.AddInputCharacter(unsigned int c).
- 2019/04/29 (1.70) - improved ImDrawList thick strokes (>1.0f) preserving correct thickness up to 90 degrees angles (e.g. rectangles). If you have custom rendering using thick lines, they will appear thicker now.
