With this change, we now have ~1200 CellAllocators across both LibJS and
LibWeb in a normal WebContent instance.
This gives us a minimum heap size of 4.7 MiB in the scenario where we
only have one cell allocated per type. Of course, in practice there will
be many more of each type, so the effective overhead is quite a bit
smaller than that in practice.
I left a few types unconverted to this mechanism because I got tired of
doing this. :^)
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
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.
'static' for a function means that the symbol shall not be made public
for the result of the current compilation unit. This does not make sense
in a header, especially not if it's a large function that is used in
more than one place and not that performance-sensitive.
There's a subtle difference here. A "block box" in the spec is a
block-level box, while a "block container" is a box whose children are
either all inline-level boxes in an IFC, or all block-level boxes
participating in a BFC.
Notably, an "inline-block" box is a "block container" but not a "block
box" since it is itself inline-level.
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. :^)

Elements with shadow roots will now recurse into those shadow trees
while building the layout tree.
This is the first step towards basic Shadow DOM support. :^)
