>> Original user feedback (see https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/openjfx-discuss/2025-August/000267.html ) called for adding an `allowUndo` parameter to `applyStyle()` and `setStyle()` methods similarly to `replaceText()`.
>> 
>> Upon further analysis, the `allowUndo` parameter was a mistake: allowing the application code to disable creating undo/redo entries messes up the internal undo/redo stack.
>> There is an internal need (`UndoableChange`), but it should not be exposed via public API.

>> This PR also adds `isUndoRedoEnabled()` and `setUndoRedoEnabled()` to the `StyledTextModel`, as well as its forwarding aliases to `RichTextArea` to allow for the application to disable undo/redo temporarily, for example, when building a document from multiple segments.

>> WARNING this is an incompatible change, permitted because of the incubator.

>> There remains a possible issue with currently unlimited size of the undo/redo stack - perhaps we should limit its depth to maybe 100-200 entries, see https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8370447 .
