Represent BufferSource and ArrayBufferView as ordinary IDL typedefs over
their underlying union types, instead of special casing in the IDL
generator. This allows the union conversion/return machinery handle
these types consistently with other typedefs, which removes buffer
specific paths from the IDL generator.
This necessitates changing the WebIDL::BufferSource and
WebIDL::ArrayBufferView classes as views over these variants. This
replaces the old GC backed BufferableObject wrapper structure and
provide convenience helpers to determine things such as the byte length,
byte offset, backing buffer, and typed-array APIs.
Represent WebIDL C++ types with a single CppType model that tracks
nullability, optional presence, and contained storage.
GC-like values now use GC::Ref/GC::Ptr directly, while containers choose
"plain", "Root", or "Conservative" container types depending on what
they contain. For example, sequence<Element> becomes a RootVector of
GC::Ref values, while sequence<SomeDictionary> becomes a
ConservativeVector only when the dictionary contains GC-like values.
This moves the generated bindings away from wrapping GC values in
GC::Root by default.
This has broad fallout as the types passed to interfaces for GC
objects changes almost fully across the board.
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.)
An upcoming commit will migrate the contents of Headers.h/cpp to LibHTTP
for use outside of LibWeb. These CORS and MIME helpers depend on other
LibWeb facilities, however, so they cannot be moved.
The spec declares these as a byte sequence, which we then implemented as
a ByteBuffer. This has become pretty awkward to deal with, as evidenced
by the plethora of `MUST(ByteBuffer::copy(...))` and `.bytes()` calls
everywhere inside Fetch. We would then treat the bytes as a string
anyways by wrapping them in StringView everywhere.
We now store these as a ByteString. This is more comfortable to deal
with, and we no longer need to continually copy underlying storage (as
ByteString is ref-counted).
This work is largely preparatory for an upcoming HTTP header refactor.
URL::basic_parse has a subtle bug where the resulting URL is not set
to valid when StateOveride is provided and the URL parser early returns
a valid URL.
This has not surfaced as a problem so far, as the only users of the
state override API provide an already valid URL buffer and also ignore
the result of basic parsing with a state override.
However, this bug surfaces implementing the URL pattern spec, which as
part of URL canonicalization:
* Provides a dummy URL record
* Basic URL parses that URL with state override
* Checks the result of the URL parser to validate the URL
While we could set URL validity on every early return of the URL parser
during state override, it has been a long standing FIXME around the code
to try and remove the awkward validity state of the URL class. So this
commit makes the first stage of this change by migrating the basic
parser API to return Optional, which also happens to make this subtle
issue not a problem any more.
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
