/// a new line is started.
///
/// The flex layouter does not actually compute anything until the `finish`
/// method is called. The reason for this is the flex layouter will have
/// the capability to justify its layouts, later. To find a good justification
/// it needs total information about the contents.
///
/// There are two different kinds units that can be added to a flex run:
/// Normal layouts and _glue_. _Glue_ layouts are only written if a normal
/// layout follows and a glue layout is omitted if the following layout
/// flows into a new line. A _glue_ layout is typically used for a space character
/// since it prevents a space from appearing in the beginning or end of a line.
/// However, it can be any layout.
