This removes a set of complex reference cycles between DOM, layout tree
and browsing context.
It also makes lifetimes much easier to reason about, as the DOM and
layout trees are now free to keep each other alive.
This was fairly straightforward, although a small part had to be ad-hoc
since we don't yet load images through Fetch.
With this, we can now see annotation labels on deskto.ps :^)
We were constantly measuring and re-measuring the "alt" attribute text
of ImageBox layout nodes, even when the alt text didn't change. By
caching this, we avoid a *lot* of repeated text measurement work.
Unlike ensure_web_prototype<T>(), the cached version doesn't require the
prototype type to be fully formed, so we can use it without including
the FooPrototype.h header. It's also a bit less verbose. :^)
This is a monster patch that turns all EventTargets into GC-allocated
PlatformObjects. Their C++ wrapper classes are removed, and the LibJS
garbage collector is now responsible for their lifetimes.
There's a fair amount of hacks and band-aids in this patch, and we'll
have a lot of cleanup to do after this.
HTMLObjectElement will need to be both a FormAssociatedElement and a
BrowsingContextContainer. Currently, both of these classes inherit from
HTMLElement. This can work in C++, but is generally frowned upon, and
doesn't play particularly well with the rest of LibWeb.
Instead, we can essentially revert commit 3bb5c62 to remove HTMLElement
from FormAssociatedElement's hierarchy. This means that objects such as
HTMLObjectElement individually inherit from FormAssociatedElement and
HTMLElement now.
Some caveats are:
* FormAssociatedElement still needs to know when the HTMLElement is
inserted into and removed from the DOM. This hook is automatically
injected via a macro now, while still allowing classes like
HTMLInputElement to also know when the element is inserted.
* Casting from a DOM::Element to a FormAssociatedElement is now a
sideways cast, rather than directly following an inheritance chain.
This means static_cast cannot be used here; but we can safely use
dynamic_cast since the only 2 instances of this already use RTTI to
verify the cast.
The "paintable" state in Layout::Box was actually not safe to access
until after layout had been performed.
As a first step towards making this harder to mess up accidentally,
this patch moves painting information from Layout::Box to a new class:
Painting::Box. Every layout can have a corresponding paint box, and
it holds the final used metrics determined by layout.
The paint box is created and populated by FormattingState::commit().
I've also added DOM::Node::paint_box() as a convenient way to access
the paint box (if available) of a given DOM node.
Going forward, I believe this will allow us to better separate data
that belongs to layout vs painting, and also open up opportunities
for naturally invalidating caches in the paint box (since it's
reconstituted by every layout.)
The new event target implementation requires us to downcast an
EventTarget to a FormAssociatedElement to check if the current Element
EventTarget has a form owner to setup a with scope for the form owner.
This also makes all form associated elements inherit from
FormAssociatedElement where it was previously missing.

Instead of making each Layout::Node compute style for itself, we now
compute it in TreeBuilder before even calling create_layout_node().
For non-element DOM nodes, we create the style and layout tree node
in TreeBuilder. This allows us to move create_layout_node() from
DOM::Node to DOM::Element.
Until now, we've internally thought of the CSS "display" property as a
single-value property. In practice, "display" is a much more complex
property that comes in a number of configurations.
The most interesting one is the two-part format that describes the
outside and inside behavior of a box. Switching our own internal
representation towards this model will allow for much cleaner
abstractions around layout and the various formatting contexts.
Note that we don't *parse* two-part "display" yet, this is only about
changing the internal representation of the property.

Instead of doing layout synchronously whenever something changes,
we now use a basic event loop timer to defer and coalesce relayouts.
If you did something that requires a relayout of the page, make sure
to call Document::set_needs_layout() and it will get coalesced with all
the other layout updates.
There's lots of room for improvement here, but this already makes many
web pages significantly snappier. :^)
Also, note that this exposes a number of layout bugs where we have been
relying on multiple relayouts to calculate the correct dimensions for
things. Now that we only do a single layout in many cases, these kind of
problems are much more noticeable. That should also make them easier to
figure out and fix. :^)
Resolved style is a spec concept that refers to the weird mix of
computed style and used style reflected by getComputedStyle().
The purpose of this class is to produce the *computed* style for a given
element, so let's call it StyleComputer.
Change all the places that were including the deprecated parser, to
include the new one instead, and then delete the old parser code.
`ParentNode::query_selector[_all]()` now treat their input as a
comma-separated list of selectors, instead of just one, and return
elements that match any of the selectors in that list. This is according
to these specs:
- querySelector/querySelectorAll:
https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#ref-for-dom-parentnode-queryselector%E2%91%A0
- selector matching algorithm:

The ImageDecoder service now returns a list of image frames, each with
a duration value.
The code for in-process image decoding is removed from LibWeb, an all
image decode requests are sent out-of-process to ImageDecoder. :^)
This won't scale super well to very long and/or large animations, but
we can work on improving that separately. The main goal here is simply
to stop doing any image decoding inside LibWeb.
Fixes#5165.
