WebRender is an experimental GPU accelerated rendering backend for Servo.
The WebRender backend can be specified by running Servo with the -w option (otherwise the default rendering backend will be used).
WebRender has many bugs, and missing features - but it is usable to browse most websites - please report any WebRender specific rendering bugs you encounter!
This commit refactors the style crate to be completely independent of
the actual implementation and pseudo-elements supported.
This also adds a gecko backend which introduces parsing for the
anonymous box pseudo-elements[1], although there's still no way of
querying them.

Updated string_cache, html5ever, xml5ever and selectors in Cargo.toml files and Cargo.lock.
Removed references to string_cache_plugin.
Import atom! and ns! from string_cache.
Replaced ns!("") by ns!().
Replaced ns!(XML) and co by ns!(xml) and co.
Replaced atom!(foo) by atom!("foo").
Replaced Atom::from_slice by Atom::from.
Replaced atom.as_slice() by &*atom.
To actually make the multiprocess communication work, we'll need to
reroute the task creation to the pipeline or the compositor. But this
works as a first step.
This commit introduces the `serde` dependency, which we will use to
serialize messages going between processes in multiprocess Servo.
This also adds a new debugging flag, `-Z print-display-list-json`,
allowing the output of display list serialization to be visualized.
This will be useful for our experiments with alternate rasterizers.
The util component specified fnv and smallvec as dependencies and publicly
reexported both of them. Several other components utilized these reexports,
presumably because fnv and smallvec used to live in the tree so reexporting
made the transition easier.
These indirect dependencies through the util component are unnecessary.
This commit removes the fnv & smallvec crate reexports in the util component.
It exchange, it adds fnv & smallvec as dependencies to non-util components
wherever needed. Finally, it removes the fnv dependency from util as it is not
utilized anywhere in the util component.
