Before this change, "background-clip: text" was implemented by saving a
Vector<Gfx::Path> of all glyphs needed to paint a mask for the
background. The issue with this approach was that once glyphs were
extracted into vector paths, the glyph rasterization cache could no
longer be utilized.
With this change, all text required for mask painting is saved in a
nested display list and rasterized as a regular text.
With this change, instead of recording a display list item for each
instance of a repeated background, a new DrawRepeatedImmutableBitmap
type is used. This allows the painter to use optimized repeated image
painting and, when the GPU backend is used, avoid re-uploading the image
texture for each repetition.
Some screenshot tests are affected, but there are no visible
regressions.
https://null.com/games/chainstaff works a lof faster with this change.
This URL library ends up being a relatively fundamental base library of
the system, as LibCore depends on LibURL.
This change has two main benefits:
* Moving AK back more towards being an agnostic library that can
be used between the kernel and userspace. URL has never really fit
that description - and is not used in the kernel.
* URL _should_ depend on LibUnicode, as it needs punnycode support.
However, it's not really possible to do this inside of AK as it can't
depend on any external library. This change brings us a little closer
to being able to do that, but unfortunately we aren't there quite
yet, as the code generators depend on LibCore.
From https://drafts.csswg.org/css-backgrounds-4/#background-clip
"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 change fixes GC-leak caused by following mutual dependency:
- SVGDecodedImageData owns JS::Handle for Page.
- SVGDecodedImageData is owned by visited objects.
by making everything inherited from HTML::DecodedImageData and
ListOfAvailableImages to be GC-allocated.
Generally, if visited object has a handle, very likely we leak
everything visited from object in a handle.
Before this change, we used Gfx::Bitmap to represent both decoded
images that are not going to be mutated and bitmaps corresponding
to canvases that could be mutated.
This change introduces a wrapper for bitmaps that are not going to be
mutated, so the painter could do caching: texture caching in the case
of GPU painter and potentially scaled bitmap caching in the case of CPU
painter.
Before this change, whenever ImageStyleValue had a non-null
`m_image_request`, it was always leaked along with everything related
to the document to which this value belongs. The issue arises due to
the use of `JS::Handle` for the image request, as it introduces a
cyclic dependency where `ImageRequest` prevents the `CSSStyleSheet`,
that owns `ImageStyleValue`, from being deallocated:
- ImageRequest
- FetchController
- FetchParams
- Window
- HTMLDocument
- HTMLHtmlElement
- HTMLBodyElement
- Text
- HTMLHeadElement
- Text
- HTMLMetaElement
- Text
- HTMLTitleElement
- Text
- HTMLStyleElement
- CSSStyleSheet
This change solves this by visiting `m_image_request` from
`visit_edges` instead of introducing new heap root by using
`JS::Handle`.
This allows to partially solve the problem of cyclic dependency between
HTMLImageElement and SharedImageRequest that prevents all image
elements from being deallocated.
As it turns out, making everyone piggyback on HTML::ImageRequest had
some major flaws, as HTMLImageElement may decide to abort an ongoing
fetch or wipe out image data, even when someone else is using the same
image request.
To avoid this issue, this patch introduces SharedImageRequest, and then
implements ImageRequest on top of that.
Other clients of the ImageRequest API are moved to SharedImageRequest
as well, and ImageRequest is now only used by HTMLImageElement.
This fixes an issue with image data disappearing and leading to asserts
and/or visually absent images.
This is all ad-hoc since no spec currently exists for this behavior.
Basically, ImageStyleValue now uses ImageRequest for fetching and
decoding of images.
This already leads to visible improvements on many websites.
