Description

At the moment Zool isn't very intelligent at constraints. For example, it's possible to add a circular constraint where a `width` constraint can point to itself. To close this issue we want Zool to be able to examine `PlotElements` and their constraints at runtime to see if there are any *obvious* issues.

Research direction

Start by locating the PlotElements implementation and how constraints are represented and evaluated at runtime. Trace how a constraint is added and checked, using the self-referential width example as the initial case. Done means Zool can identify obvious invalid or circular constraints when examining PlotElements and their constraints.
