I was swayed by the arguments about this made by the compiler team In <https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/750> and decided to look at how this organization affects ratatui. I found this reduces the number of lines across the codebase by about 350 and makes the imports more readable and definitely more greppable as you usually only have to read a single line. I've found in the past that maintaining imports regularly leads to merge conflicts which have to be resolved by hand and this change should reduce the likelihood of that happening. Main change is in rustfmt.toml, and the rest is just the result of running `cargo xtask format`. While implementing this, cargo machete brings up that the various backend crates are unused by the example crates. The re-export of each backend crate under ratatui is to make it possible for libs that rely on a specific version of ratatui to use the same version of the backend crate. Apps in general should use the backend crate directly rather than through ratatui as this is less confusing. - Removes all usages of `ratatui::{crossterm, termion, termwiz}`` in the examples. - Adds the backend crate to the dependencies of the examples that use the backend crate directly.
