This is a part of refactoring towards making the paintable tree
independent of the layout tree. Now, instead of transferring text
fragments from the layout tree to the paintable tree during the layout
commit phase, we allocate separate PaintableFragments that contain only
the information necessary for painting. Doing this also allows us to
get rid LineBoxes, as they are used only during layout.
This change separates the box outer shadow metrics calculations into a
separate function. This function is then used to obtain the shadow
bounding rectangle and skip painting if the entire shadow is outside
of the viewport.
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.
We don't yet take the spread-distance parameter into account, since we
don't have a way to "inflate" the text shadow.
Also, I'm not sure if we need to inflate the shadow slightly anyway.
Blurred shadows of our pixel fonts seem very faint. Part of this is
that a blur of < 3px does nothing, see #13231, but even so we might
want to inflate it a little.
The `text-shadow` property is almost identical to `box-shadow`:
> Values are interpreted as for box-shadow [CSS-BACKGROUNDS-3].
> (But note that the inset keyword are not allowed.)
So, let's use the same data structures and parsing code for both. :^)
We also pass whether the shadow goes inside or outside the element. Only
outer shadows are rendered currently, and inner ones may want to be
handled separately from them, as they will never interfere with each
other.
