<p><code>text</code>: a string of text to wrap
<code>width</code>: the width in pixels to wrap to
<code>extent_func</code>: a function that returns a (w, h) tuple given any string, to
specify the size (text extent) of the string when rendered.
the algorithm only uses the width.</p>
<p>Returns a list of strings, one for each line after wrapping.</p>
