Jeremy Klein a14c8e762d perf: shrink HomeActivity cover cache from 48KB framebuffer to 16KB region (#2035)
On-device repro showed the cover snapshot pinning ~52KB of contiguous
heap (cloning the full 48KB framebuffer with malloc overhead). MaxAlloc
on Home was 61KB; nothing was leaving headroom for HTTPS, which needs
30-50KB contiguous for the mbedTLS handshake.

Add region-aware framebuffer helpers to GfxRenderer that translate a
logical rect through rotateCoordinates and copy only the byte range that
contains the rotated rect. HomeActivity records the tile rect it passes
to drawRecentBookCover and caches only that subregion.

Measured on device (X3, Portrait):

  Idle on Home    | Free 102K -> 139K  | MaxAlloc 61K -> 115K
  Mid-EPUB-read   | Free  81K -> 134K  | MaxAlloc 70K -> 115K
  Cover cache     |        ~52K -> ~16K (per allocation)

Works in all four orientations because the bounds helper samples the
four logical corners through the existing rotation, so the cached byte
range always covers the pixels the theme could have drawn into.

Savings will vary with theme, but should be significant across all.
