Public Member Functions
	CyberpunkTextEffect (QLabel *label, QWidget *parent=nullptr)
	Constructs a CyberpunkTextEffect. Stores the target QLabel, hides it initially, and sets up the animation timer.
void	StartAnimation ()
	Starts the text reveal an animation sequence from the beginning. Resets the animation phase and character index, then starts the internal timer.

Private Slots
void	NextAnimationStep ()
	Slot called periodically by the timer to advance the animation. Executes the logic for the current animation phase (scanning, typing, glitching) by calling the corresponding private Animate* method. Stops the timer when the animation completes.

Private Member Functions
void	AnimateGlitching ()
	Handles the final "Glitching" phase of the animation. Briefly displays the full text with rapidly changing random characters inserted. Transitions to the final phase when complete.
void	AnimateScanning ()
	Handles the "Scanning" phase of the animation. Displays a sweeping vertical bar "|" across the label's width. Transitions to the "Typing" phase when complete.
void	AnimateTyping ()
	Handles the "Typing" phase of the animation. Reveals the original text character by character, inserting random glitch characters occasionally. Transitions to the "Glitching" phase when complete.

Private Attributes
int	char_index_ = 0
	Index used during scanning and typing phases to track progress.
int	glitch_count_ = 0
	Counter used during the final glitching phase.
QLabel *	label_
	Pointer to the QLabel widget being animated.
QString	original_text_
	The original text content of the label.
int	phase_ = 0
	Current phase of the animation (0: Scan, 1: Type, 2: Glitch, 3: Done).
QTimer *	timer_
	Timer driving the animation steps.

Detailed Description

Applies a multiphase cyberpunk-style text reveal animation to a QLabel.

This class takes control of a QLabel and animates its text content through several phases:

1. Scanning: A vertical bar "|" sweeps across the label's width.
2. Typing: The original text is revealed character by character, with occasional random glitch characters inserted.
3. Glitching: A brief final phase where random characters are rapidly inserted and removed from the full text.
4. Final: The animation stops, displaying the original text cleanly.

The animation is driven by a QTimer.
