The end goal here is for LibHTTP to be the home of our RFC 9111 (HTTP
caching) implementation. We currently have one implementation in LibWeb
for our in-memory cache and another in RequestServer for our disk cache.
The implementations both largely revolve around interacting with HTTP
headers. But in LibWeb, we are using Fetch's header infra, and in RS we
are using are home-grown header infra from LibHTTP.
So to give these a common denominator, this patch replaces the LibHTTP
implementation with Fetch's infra. Our existing LibHTTP implementation
was not particularly compliant with any spec, so this at least gives us
a standards-based common implementation.
This migration also required moving a handful of other Fetch AOs over
to LibHTTP. (It turns out these AOs were all from the Fetch/Infra/HTTP
folder, so perhaps it makes sense for LibHTTP to be the implementation
of that entire set of facilities.)
We could probably do with removing LoadRequest altogether. But this just
removes unused methods for now to make an upcoming HTTP header change a
bit simpler.
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
This patch introduces a caching mechanism in ResourceLoader. It's keyed
on a LoadRequest object which is what you provide to load_resource()
when you want to load a resource.
We currently never prune the cache, so resources will stay in there
forever. This is obviously not gonna stay that way, but we're just
getting started here. :^)
This should drastically reduce the number of requests when loading
some sites (like Twitter) that reuse the same images over and over.
