Instead of spawning these processes from the WebContent process, we now
create them in the Browser chrome.
Part 1/N of "all processes are owned by the chrome".
With this change, chrome no longer has to ask the WebContent process
to paint the next frame into a specified bitmap. Instead, it allocates
bitmaps and sends them to WebContent, which then lets chrome know when
the painting is done.
This work is a preparation to move the execution of painting commands
into a separate thread. Now, it is much easier to start working on the
next frame while the current one is still rendering. This is because
WebContent does not have to inform chrome that the current frame is
ready before it can request the next frame.
Additionally, as a side bonus, we can now eliminate the
did_invalidate_content_rect and did_change_selection IPC calls. These
were used solely for the purpose of informing chrome that it needed to
request a repaint.
It is currently a bit messy to pass these options along from main() to
where WebContent is actually launched. If a new flag were to be added,
there are a couple dozen files that need to be updated to pass that flag
along. With this change, the flag can just be added to the struct, set
in main(), and handled in launch_web_content_process().
The `page_did_request_scroll_to` API takes a CSS position, and thus
callers should not scale to device pixels before invoking it. Instead,
align this API with (most) other PageHost APIs which scale to device
pixels before sending the corresponding IPC message.
In the AppKit chrome, convert the provided device pixel position to a
widget position.
This lets the user zoom in and out on a web page using the View menu or
keyboard shortcuts. This does not implement zooming with ctrl+scroll.
In the future, it'd be nice to embed the zoom level display inside the
location toolbar. But to do that, we will need to invent our own custom
search field and all of the UI classes (controller, cell, etc.) to draw
the field. So for now, this places the zoom level display to the right
of the location toolbar.
This lets the user choose a color scheme which differs from the active
system theme. Upon changing the color scheme, the scheme is broadcast to
all active tabs, and will be used in new tabs.
We can easily add hooks to notify the browsers of these events if any
implementation-specific handling is needed in the future, but for now,
these only repaint the client, which we can do in ViewImplementation.
Storing the backup bitmap is the same across Browser and Ladybird. Just
peform that work in LibWebView, and handle only the implementation-
specific nuances within the browsers.
This also sets the default callback to do what every non-Serenity
browser is doing, rather than copy-pasting this callback into every
implementation. The callback is still available for any platform which
might want to override the default behavior. For example, OOPWV now
overrides this callback to use FileSystemAccessClient.
This adds an alternative Ladybird chrome for macOS using the AppKit
framework. Just about everything needed for normal web browsing has
been implemented. This includes:
* Tabbed, scrollable navigation
* History navigation (back, forward, reload)
* Keyboard / mouse events
* Favicons
* Context menus
* Cookies
* Dialogs (alert, confirm, prompt)
* WebDriver support
This does not include debugging tools like the JavaScript console and
inspector, nor theme support.
The Qt chrome is still used by default. To use the AppKit chrome, set
the ENABLE_QT CMake option to OFF.
