28e9a0a9ba [ui] Add a specialized function for subrect allocation
While VRect_Difference worked for subrect allocation, it wasn't ideal as
it tended to produce a lot of long, narrow strips that were difficult to
reuse and thus wasted a lot of the super-rectangle's area. This is
because it always does horizontal splits first. However, rewriting
VRect_Difference didn't seem to be the best option.

VRect_SubRect (the new function) takes only width and height, and splits
the given rectangle such that if there are two off-cuts, they will be
both the minimum and maximum possible area. This does seem to make for
much better utilization of the available area. It's also faster as it
does only the two splits, rather than four.
