Add a PC renderer for the themed pages; fix overlapping layouts

tools/render_pages.py compiles the page code natively with g++ against ESPHome's own display and font code and the font bitmaps of the last `esphome compile`, and draws pages to PNG at chosen moments with sample data (normal, empty, alert, busy), as a contact sheet, or as one example per page in docs/images/pages (now shown in the README). Fixes found with it: Cyber HUD zone names ran into the temperatures, the breach header label hit the tag and the column marker the matrix label; KonoSuba subtitle, guild weather icon, cabbage text and all-day deadline, and hills through the party; Steins;Gate D-mail recipient, the microwave display, the gadget card value and world line labels; LCARS room rows, readout bars and data cascade, warp core readouts, and the captain's log weather wording.

+## Rendering pages on the PC
+
+[tools/render_pages.py](tools/render_pages.py) draws the themed pages to PNG without
+the panel, to check layouts before flashing and to make the images above. It compiles
+the page code natively with g++ against ESPHome's own display and font code (from the
+installed `esphome` package) and the exact font bitmaps of the last `esphome compile`,
+so text sizes and positions match the device. Pages are drawn at chosen moments after
+they were shown, with sample data:
+
+```bash
+esphome compile esphome/el512-panel-local.yaml        # once, and after font changes
+python tools/render_pages.py                          # all pages -> .render/out
+python tools/render_pages.py --page st_lcars --at 0,2000 --scenario alert
+python tools/render_pages.py --scenario busy --sheet  # long names, high values
+python tools/render_pages.py --scenario empty         # no data yet
+python tools/render_pages.py --examples               # docs/images/pages/*.png
+```
+
+It needs a C++20 g++ (MinGW-w64 works on Windows) and Pillow. The host stand-in for
+the display and the sample data are in [tools/render/](tools/render/).
