Summary

This PR started as just updating EuiDataGrid to use the new EuiTextBreakTruncate component... and then I kept staring at the code going "ugh this is so hard to read/understand" and then several hours later I'd done my favorite thing, which is cleaning up code (and discovering a bug or two along the way) 🤣

I split up the commits by emoji to signify which items were refactors (🔥). I also recommend reading the commit messages as I tried to explain my reasoning for certain changes as I went along.

This is a refactor PR and no functionality or end-user experience should have degraded as a result of this PR. If that is not the case / if you find a regression, please let me know!

QA

Regression testing:

  • Go to https://eui.elastic.co/pr_7255/#/tabular-content/data-grid
  • Confirm that by default, only a single line of text renders with overflowing text being correctly truncated
  • Click the Display options button icon in the top right hand corner, and set the Row height control to Auto fit
  • Confirm each cell has visible and non-truncated content, and each cell is the same height as the tallest cell
  • Change the grid row height to Custom (should default to 2 lines per row)
  • Confirm long text correctly truncates after 2 lines, and the euiTextBreakTruncate className is present
  • Open the display options again and change the line count to 4. Confirm behavior continues to work
  • Repeat the above steps on production and confirm that all behaviors are the same as on saging

General checklist

  • Browser QA
    - [ ] Checked in both light and dark modes
    - [ ] Checked in mobile
    • Checked in Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox
    • Checked for accessibility including keyboard-only and screenreader modes
  • Docs site QA - N/A, refactor only
  • Code quality checklist
  • Release checklist - N/A, refactor that should not have affected either end-users or consumers
  • Designer checklist - N/A

- in favor of a more agnostic height-type util

- We'll be replacing the line count styles with the new `EuiTextBlockTruncate` component

- NOTE: the `height: 100%` style needs to be retained for `lineCount` and `numerical` height types, hence the new util that will be passed to a CSS class
- Remove unnecessary `flex-grow: 1` - isn't doing anything

+ start the process of moving out the text truncation/breaking CSS to their className utils
- allows us to remove torturous selector and repeat CSS in favor of using explicit className utils

- `isDefinedHeight` is no longer used, remove it

- `overflow` is already set by text truncate component

- `height: 100%` doesn't appear to do anything or be useful. if for some reason it is needed in the future, we can always re-add it
- in favor of passing condition/setting conditional styling logic directly in the cell actions component
- pass var(s) instead of re-getting it twice
- move all logic related to content to the `EuiDataGridCellContent` component, including the wrapper

let the parent cell pass down any needed refs + actions
- remove extremely confusing `__expand` class names in favor of using the height type (that determines the kind of behavior the content has, e.g. flex vs absolutely positioned, etc)

- Make sure only the heights that need certain CSS have that CSS (the non-default-height cells don't need display flex)
- move flex CSS specific to default height cells to its selector, vs. the baseline actions component
…ts that have overflowing content

+ Add Cypress regression tests to ensure popovers are rendering from the correct anchor/position

@1Copenut I'd recommend focusing on the QA for this PR and only lightly skimming or skipping the code review 😅 Primarily what I want to be sure of is that cell display (when toggling to different height options) is the same as production, and that cell popover anchoring/positioning is also the same as production without regressions.

EDIT: Also no rush on reviewing this, I'm shooting to merge it in after next week's release to reduce churn (since we already have a few spicier changes going in this week, I want to spread this one out)

👍 I reviewed code briefly as you suggested @cee-chen and focused most of my efforts on manual QA. I ran through each of the suggested steps in the four evergreen browsers and confirmed the correct readout behavior in VoiceOver, NVDA, and JAWS with preferred browser pairings. Solid PR!

`v89.0.0`⏩`v89.1.0`

This upgrade also contains an EuiDataGrid refactor
(elastic/eui#7255) not listed in the changelog
(as no end-user functionality or props changed as a result of the
refactor). The unlisted changes should only affect DOM and `className`
usages in Kibana (primarily CSS overrides and test selectors).

---

## [`89.1.0`](https://github.com/elastic/eui/tree/v89.1.0)

- Added `tokenVectorSparse` token and updated `tokenDenseVector` token
(now named `tokenVectorDense`).
([#7282](elastic/eui#7282))

**CSS-in-JS conversions**

- Reduced default CSS prefixes generated by Emotion to only browsers
supported by EUI (latest evergreen browsers). This can be customized by
passing your own Emotion cache to `EuiProvider`.
