dotCooCoo 91d705e155 Gradients: repeat or reflect a gradient's stops a set number of times
A linear, radial, conic or diamond gradient has a spread: Pad (the
default, as before), Repeat or Reflect, with a count of 1 to 100
(VectorCraft's own limit). Repeat and Reflect run the stops that many
times along the vector (around the turn for a conic) and keep going past
both ends, Reflect running every other run backwards, as SVG's
spreadMethod does.

The Gradient panel has a Spread menu and a Repeats field, and the
Gradient tool marks where the runs meet. paint.setFill and
paint.editGradient take `spread` and `repeats`; bad values are errors.
Presets, swatches, blends, strokes along or across a path, Outline
Stroke and Object › Expand follow the spread; Expand gives each run the
same whole number of objects, and Outline Stroke's mesh keeps the color
on each side of a sharp step between two stops at one offset.

SVG writes and reads spreadMethod: SVG import now reads a repeating or
reflecting gradient as one that repeats or reflects once, instead of
expanding its stops over the shape. CSS writes repeating gradients.
PDF writes a conic's sweep shading over one run. PDF, EPS, legacy .ai
and the .ai editing data write the other kinds with their stops
repeated across the shape: at most 256 runs and 16,384 stops (256 stops
in .ai files), and for a radial or diamond no farther than 65,536 runs
from its center, with a warning past those. PDF import now finds sharp
steps in any axial or radial shading instead of blurring them.
