"The background is painted within (clipped to) the intersection of the
border box and the geometry of the text in the element and its in-flow
and floated descendants"
This change implements it in the following way:
1. Traverse the descendants of the element, collecting the Gfx::Path of
glyphs into a vector.
2. The vector of collected paths is saved in the background painting
command.
3. The painting commands executor uses the list of glyphs to paint a
mask for background clipping.

This modification introduces a new layer to the painting process. The
stacking context traversal no longer immediately calls the
Gfx::Painter methods. Instead, it writes serialized painting commands
into newly introduced RecordingPainter. Created list of commands is
executed later to produce resulting bitmap.
Producing painting command list will make it easier to add new
optimizations:
- It's simpler to check if the painting result is not visible in the
viewport at the command level rather than during stacking context
traversal.
- Run painting in a separate thread. The painting thread can process
serialized painting commands, while the main thread can work on the
next paintable tree and safely invalidate the previous one.
- As we consider GPU-accelerated painting support, it would be easier
to back each painting command rather than constructing an alternative
for the entire Gfx::Painter API.
This is intended to annotate conversions from unknown floating-point
values to CSSPixels, and make it more obvious the fp value will be
rounded to the nearest fixed-point value.
In general it is not safe to convert any arbitrary floating-point value
to CSSPixels. CSSPixels has a resolution of 0.015625, which for small
values (e.g. scale factors between 0 and 1), can produce bad results
if converted to CSSPixels then scaled back up. In the worst case values
can underflow to zero and produce incorrect results.
The `clip_shrink` optimization in `paint_background()` now also
correctly uses DevicePixels, instead of reducing a DevicePixel rect by
a CSSPixels amount.
Always use `would_be_fully_clipped_by_painter` to check if painting can
be skipped.
This allows to quickly find all the places where this check happens and
also removes incosistency that before we checked for intersection with
viewport rect in some places and for intersection with painter clip
rect in other places.
Although DistinctNumeric, which is supposed to abstract the underlying
type, was used to represent CSSPixels, we have a whole bunch of places
in the layout code that assume CSSPixels::value() returns a
floating-point type. This assumption makes it difficult to replace the
underlying type in CSSPixels with a non-floating type.
To make it easier to transition CSSPixels to fixed-point math, one step
we can take is to prevent access to the underlying type using value()
and instead use explicit conversions with the to_float(), to_double(),
and to_int() methods.
This fixes a plethora of rounding problems on many websites.
In the future, we may want to replace this with fixed-point arithmetic
(bug #18566) for performance (and consistency with other engines),
but in the meantime this makes the web look a bit better. :^)
There's a lot more things that could be converted to doubles, which
would reduce the amount of casting necessary in this patch.
We can do that incrementally, however.
Previously, calling `.right()` on a `Gfx::Rect` would return the last
column's coordinate still inside the rectangle, or `left + width - 1`.
This is called 'endpoint inclusive' and does not make a lot of sense for
`Gfx::Rect<float>` where a rectangle of width 5 at position (0, 0) would
return 4 as its right side. This same problem exists for `.bottom()`.
This changes `Gfx::Rect` to be endpoint exclusive, which gives us the
nice property that `width = right - left` and `height = bottom - top`.
It enables us to treat `Gfx::Rect<int>` and `Gfx::Rect<float>` exactly
the same.
All users of `Gfx::Rect` have been updated accordingly.
The name "initial containing block" was wrong for this, as it doesn't
correspond to the HTML element, and that's specifically what it's
supposed to do! :^)
This commit moves both the ImageStyleValue and LinearGradientStyleValue
to a common base class of AbstractImageStyleValue. This abstracts
getting the natural_width/height, loading/resolving, and painting
the image.
Now for 'free' you get:
- Linear gradients working with the various background sizing/repeat
properties.
- Linear gradients working as list-markers :^) -- best feature ever!
P.s. This commit is a little large as it's tricky to make this change
incrementally without breaking things.
This is just a quick test that everything is working. Currently
it paints the gradients with the existing
painter.fill_rect_with_gradient(). This can only handle two-color
orthogonal gradients.
Previously, this was slightly off and not doing what the spec comment
above asked for. This led to really small values for x_step and
y_step, making the `backgrounds.html' example use crazy amounts of
CPU whist painting.
This commit adds some much nicer border painting, which now supports:
- Elliptical corners
- Blending between different border thicknesses, with rounded corners
- Anti-aliasing
There are some little TODOs left to tackle:
- Painting the corners with line styles other than solid
- Blending between colors on the corners (see comments)
The painting requires allocating a small bitmap, that only fits the
corners (so in most cases this is very small).
This bitmap is then cached so for all paints but the first there will
be no further allocations.
Preserve floating point precision and delay rounding until the last
moment when figuring out where to paint background layers. This fixes an
issue on Acid3 where a thin sliver of red was visible because the
background X position was incorrectly rounded by 1px.
By using enclosing_int_rect(), borders and backgrounds of boxes were
sometimes 1 pixel off, making things slightly larger than they should
be. Fix this by using to_rounded() instead of enclosing_int_rect().
There's definitely more of these type of issues lurking in the code,
and we'll get to them in time.
This fixes the placement of several background images on Acid2, most
notably the background of the eyes and the red rectangle near the bottom
of the head.
Nobody makes undefined Lengths now, (although actually removing
Undefined will come in a later commit) so we can remove this parameter,
and `resolved_or_auto()`/`resolved_or_zero()`.
Most of the time, we cannot resolve a `calc()` expression until we go to
use it. Since any `<length-percentage>` can legally be a `calc
()`, let's store it in `LengthPercentage` rather than make every single
user care about this distinction.
Despite looking like it was still needed, it was only used for passing
to other calls to Length::resolved() recursively. This makes the
various `foo.resolved().resolved()` calls a lot less awkward.
(Though, still quite awkward.)
I think we'd need to separate calculated lengths out to properly tidy
these calls up, but one yak at a time. :^)
