+/**
+ * Custom single-pass layout for note feed items that replaces the nested
+ * Row/Column structure with direct constraint calculation using known fixed
+ * dimensions.
+ *
+ * ## Layout structure
+ *
+ * When [showAuthorColumn] is true (normal notes):
+ * ```
+ * ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ * │ padding (start=12, end=12, top=10)           │
+ * │ ┌──────┐ 10dp ┌────────────────────────────┐ │
+ * │ │author│  gap  │ firstRow                   │ │
+ * │ │ 55dp │       │ secondRow (optional)       │ │
+ * │ │      │       │ 4dp spacer (optional)      │ │
+ * │ ├──────┤ 5dp   │ noteContent                │ │
+ * │ │relay │  gap  │                            │ │
+ * │ │badges│       │                            │ │
+ * │ └──────┘       └────────────────────────────┘ │
+ * ├───────────────────────────────────────────────┤
+ * │ reactionsRow (full width, no side padding)    │
+ * └───────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+ * ```
+ *
+ * When [showAuthorColumn] is false (boosted/quoted notes):
+ * ```
+ * ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ * │ firstRow (full width)                         │
+ * │ noteContent                                   │
+ * ├───────────────────────────────────────────────┤
+ * │ reactionsRow (full width)                     │
+ * └───────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+ * ```
+ *
+ * ## Design choices
+ *
+ * **Multi-content Layout instead of layoutId**: Uses [Layout] with `contents: List`
+ * so each slot's composables become direct measurables without Box/Column wrappers.
+ * This eliminates 6 intermediate layout nodes per note compared to the layoutId
+ * approach. Empty slot lambdas produce empty measurable lists, which are skipped
+ * entirely (no [Constraints.fixed] zero-size measurement needed).
+ *
+ * **Padding in measure policy instead of Modifier.padding()**: The reactions row
+ * spans the full parent width without side padding, while the author + content area
+ * has 12dp horizontal padding. A single Modifier.padding() can't express different
+ * padding for different children, so padding offsets are applied during placement.
+ *
+ * **placeRelative instead of place**: Ensures correct positioning in RTL layouts
+ * by automatically mirroring x coordinates.
+ *
+ * **arrayOfNulls instead of map**: For multi-child slots (noteContent, reactionsRow),
+ * uses pre-sized arrays with indexed iteration to avoid List allocation overhead in
+ * the measure pass hot path.
+ *
+ * ## Slot ordering contract
+ *
+ * The `contents` list and `allMeasurables` indices are:
+ * - 0: [authorPicture] - 0 or 1 measurables
+ * - 1: [relayBadges] - 0 or 1 measurables
+ * - 2: [firstRow] - exactly 1 measurable
+ * - 3: [secondRow] - 0 or 1 measurables
+ * - 4: [noteContent] - 1+ measurables (stacked vertically)
+ * - 5: [reactionsRow] - 0+ measurables (stacked vertically)
+ *
+ * ## Performance
+ *
+ * Compared to the previous nested Row > Column > Column structure:
+ * - Eliminates 3 layout node levels (Row, author Column, content Column)
+ * - Eliminates Row's two-pass measurement (measure author first, then content)
+ * - Pre-computes all pixel dimensions once via [remember], cached across recompositions
+ * - Remaining per-frame allocations: ~48 bytes for `listOf(6 lambdas)` +
+ *   ~24 bytes per `arrayOfNulls` for multi-child slots
+ *
+ * The caller should use `drawBehind { drawRect(color) }` instead of
+ * `background(color)` on the [modifier] to avoid recomposition when the
+ * background color state changes (e.g. "new item" highlight fade).
+ *
+ * @param modifier Applied to the Layout root. Typically includes combinedClickable
+ *   for note navigation, drawBehind for background color, and fillMaxWidth.
+ * @param addPadding Whether to add standard note padding (12dp sides, 10dp top)
+ *   to the author + content area. False for boosted notes.
+ * @param showAuthorColumn Whether to reserve 55dp for the author picture column
+ *   with a 10dp gap. False for boosted/quoted notes.
+ * @param showSecondRow Whether to measure and place the second header row
+ *   (NIP-05 status, location, PoW). Requires complete UI mode.
+ * @param showContentSpacer Whether to add a 4dp spacer between header rows and
+ *   note content. False for repost events.
+ * @param authorPicture Slot for the author's profile picture (55x55dp area).
+ *   Should emit nothing when [showAuthorColumn] is false to skip composition.
+ * @param relayBadges Slot for relay indicator icons below the author picture.
+ *   Should emit nothing when [showAuthorColumn] is false.
+ * @param firstRow Slot for the primary header: author name, time, more options.
+ *   Always present.
+ * @param secondRow Slot for the secondary header: NIP-05, location, PoW, OTS.
+ *   Should emit nothing when [showSecondRow] is false.
+ * @param noteContent Slot for the event-specific content. May emit multiple
+ *   children (content + zap splits + approval button) which are stacked vertically.
+ * @param reactionsRow Slot for the reaction buttons row. May emit a ReactionsRow,
+ *   a Spacer, or nothing depending on event type.
