Constraint::Length does not work properly when Flex::SpaceBetween is applied for single element

Description

When creating a Layout for a area with a hard length comprising of a single item and applying flex::spacebetween does not properly render the item with fixed length, instead it expands the item to fill the remaning space.

Example:

let [item] = Layout::horizontal([Constraint::Length(50)]) .flex(Flex::SpaceBetween) .areas(area); =================== Expected behavior ==================== <------------------------------------80 px------------------------------------->

┌──────50 px───────┐ │ Length(50) │ └──────────────── ┘ ======================Actual behavior ========================= <------------------------------------80 px------------------------------------->

┌────────────────80 px──────────────────────────┐ │ Length(50) │ └───────────────────────────────────────────── ┘

To Reproduce

Expected behavior

=================== Expected behavior ==================== <------------------------------------80 px-------------------------------------> ┌──────50 px───────┐ │ Length(50) │ └──────────────── ┘

Additional context

Test Case expected to pass

#[test]
fn space_between_single_length_preserves_constraint() {
    let area = Rect::new(0, 0, 80, 1);

    let [item] = Layout::horizontal([Constraint::Length(50)])
        .flex(Flex::SpaceBetween)
        .areas(area);

    assert_eq!(item, Rect::new(0, 0, 50, 1));
