## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* New canvas renderer debug metrics and controls for runtime inspection.
* Mindmap/group reordering now normalizes group targets, improving
reorder consistency.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Fixed connector behavior for empty/degenerate paths.
* More aggressive viewport invalidation so structural changes display
correctly.
* Improved z-index synchronization during transforms and layer updates.
* **Performance**
* Retained DOM caching for brushes, shapes, and connectors to reduce DOM
churn.
* Targeted canvas refreshes, pooling, and reuse to lower redraw and
memory overhead.
* **Tests**
* Added canvas renderer performance benchmarks and curve edge-case unit
tests.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* DOM rendering added for groups, mind maps and connectors so group
titles/outlines and mindmap connectors are visible on canvas.
* Shapes now support right-to-left text with proper vertical alignment.
* **Improvements**
* Connector labels scale with viewport zoom for crisper display.
* Group-related selections (including nested groups) now update visuals
consistently.
* **Performance**
* Reduced DOM churn and fewer redraws during rendering and selection
changes.
* **Refactor**
* Renderer import/export surfaces consolidated with no user-facing
behavior changes.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Bug Fixes**
* Improved stacking order across canvas elements (shapes, connectors,
brush, highlighter), reducing unexpected overlap.
* Corrected z-index application for placeholders and fully rendered
elements to ensure consistent layering during edits.
* **Refactor**
* Centralized z-index handling for canvas elements to provide
predictable, uniform layering behavior across the app.

### TL;DR
Added DOM-based renderer for connector elements in the AFFiNE editor.
### What changed?
- Created a new DOM-based renderer for connector elements that uses SVG
for rendering
- Implemented `ConnectorDomRendererExtension` to register the DOM
renderer for connector elements
- Added support for rendering connector paths, endpoints (arrows,
triangles, circles, diamonds), stroke styles, and labels
- Registered the new DOM renderer extension in the connector view setup
- Added comprehensive tests to verify DOM rendering functionality
### How to test?
1. Enable the DOM renderer flag in the editor
2. Create connector elements between shapes or with fixed positions
3. Verify that connectors render correctly with different styles:
- Try different stroke styles (solid, dashed)
- Test various endpoint styles (Arrow, Triangle, Circle, Diamond)
- Add text labels to connectors
4. Check that connectors update properly when connected elements move
5. Verify that connectors are removed when deleted
### Why make this change?
The DOM-based renderer provides an alternative to the Canvas-based
renderer, offering better accessibility and potentially improved
performance for certain use cases. This implementation allows connectors
to be rendered as SVG elements within the DOM, which can be more easily
inspected, styled with CSS, and interacted with by assistive
technologies.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **New Features**
- Improved rendering for diamond and triangle shapes using SVG, resulting in more accurate stroke and fill display.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Ensured background and border styles do not interfere with SVG-based shapes.
- **Tests**
- Added tests to verify correct DOM rendering for diamond and triangle shapes.
- **Refactor**
- Streamlined and clarified the rendering logic for polygonal shapes, separating SVG and CSS rendering paths.
