Use CSS point units for letter spacing.
textSetLetterSpacing accepts points, but the web runtime appends "px". CSS treats 1pt as 4/3px, so non-zero values request different tracking. This causes a localized visual mismatch, so major severity is overstated.

Preserve point units for web letter spacing.
textSetLetterSpacing defines points as points, but the WASM runtime assigns the same number as CSS pixels. For example, 1 becomes 1px, which applies 75% of the requested point spacing. This causes a localized rendering mismatch, so the major classification is overstated.
Use a CSS point length or convert points to CSS pixels.

Use i64 for the Android widget handles.
The shared native exports use an i64 handle followed by an f64 value. These Android exports declare both parameters as f64. The caller and callee can therefore use different ABI register classes for the first argument.
Match the shared signatures even while these functions remain no-ops.

Remove spacing entries during widget cleanup.
set_letter_spacing and set_line_height insert entries into TEXT_SPACING, but cleanup_widget_maps does not remove them. The append-only widget registry prevents handle reuse, so stale spacing is not applied to a later widget. The map still grows for every removed styled text widget.

Preserve paragraph alignment when line height is disabled.
When refresh_spacing handles letter-spacing-only use or set_line_height(handle, 1.0), it removes NSParagraphStyle. AppKit ignores NSTextField.alignment for attributed strings, so a centered or right-aligned field can render with default paragraph alignment.
Retain or create a paragraph style, set its alignment from NSTextField.alignment, and reset only lineHeightMultiple to its default value. Add regression assertions for letter-spacing-only use and alignment after a line-height reset.
