Class description
Incremental layout gadgets inherit from pack and implement an optimization where the relayout operation after adding a child to be done in constant time.

Incremental layout gadgets are created by calling <incremental>.

Children are managed with the add-incremental and clear-incremental words.

An example of an incremental is the 'output' of a 'pane' gadget.

Not every pack can use incremental layout, since incremental layout does not support non-default values for the align, fill, and gap slots.
