This adds the --expose-experimental-interfaces command line flag to
enable experimental IDL interfaces. Any IDL interface with Experimental
in its exposed attributes will be disabled by default.
The problem is that by stubbing out or partially implementing interfaces
in LibWeb, we actually make some sites behave worse. For example, the
OffscreenCanvas interface being exposed makes sites believe we fully
support it, even though we don't. If the interface was not exposed,
these sites may fall back to ordinary canvas objects. Similarly, to
use YouTube, we currently have to patch out MSE interfaces.
This flag will allow developers to iteratively work on features,
without breaking such sites. We enable experimental interfaces during
tests.
This has quite a lot of fall out. But the majority of it is just type or
UDL substitution, where the changes just fall through to other function
calls.
By changing property key storage to UTF-16, the main affected areas are:
* NativeFunction names must now be UTF-16
* Bytecode identifiers must now be UTF-16
* Module/binding names must now be UTF-16
These callbacks are evaluated synchronously via JS::Call. We do not need
to construct an expensive RootVector container just to immediately
invoke the callbacks.
Stylistically, this also helps indicate where the actual arguments start
at the call sites, by wrapping the arguments in braces.
All global objects current need to be event targets so that they
can have events dispatched to them. This allows for removing of
verify_cast for these global objects.
In line with the ShadowRealm proposal changes in the WebIDL spec:
webidl#1437 and supporting changes in HTML spec.
This is required for ShadowRealms as they have no relevant settings
object on the shadow realm, so fixes a crash in the QueueingStrategy
test in this commit.
These interfaces are exposed on *, meaning it should work for workers
and our newly added shadow realm global object by being stored on the
universal global scope mixin.
Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
