This commit introduces a WEB_SET_PROTOTYPE_FOR_INTERFACE macro that
caches the interface name in a local static FlyString. This means that
we only pay for FlyString-from-literal lookup once per browser lifetime
instead of every time the interface is instantiated.
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. :^)
Stop worrying about tiny OOMs. Work towards #20449.
While going through these, I also changed the function signature in many
places where returning ThrowCompletionOr<T> is no longer necessary.
The main thread in the WebContent process is often busy with layout and
running JavaScript. This can cause audio to sound jittery and crack. To
avoid this behavior, we now drive audio on a secondary thread.
Note: Browser on Serenity uses AudioServer, the connection for which is
already handled on a secondary thread within LibAudio. So this only
applies to Lagom.
Rather than using LibThreading, our hands are tied to QThread for now.
Internally, the Qt media objects use a QTimer, which is forbidden from
running on a thread that is not a QThread (the debug console is spammed
with messages pointing this out). Ideally, in the future AudioServer
will be able to run for non-Serenity platforms, and most of this can be
aligned with the Serenity implementation.
The audio element behaves a bit differently than the video element in
that the audio element drives itself on a timer (as opposed to LibVideo
notifying the video element when a frame is available). So if an audio
element is paused while seeking, we wouldn't receive an updated playback
position until the element is unpaused.
This fixes an issue where you would have to click the play button twice
to re-start an audio track after it reached the end.
