In addition to some small API changes, this downstream version of
WebRender no longer depends on a very old version of time. This is the
last step toward removing the dependency on `time0.1`.

Up until now, Servo was using a very old version of time to get a
cross-process monotonic timestamp (using `time::precise_time_ns()`).
This change replaces the usage of old time with a new serializable
monotonic time called `CrossProcessInstant` and uses it where `u64`
timestamps were stored before. The standard library doesn't provide this
functionality because it isn't something you can do reliably on all
platforms. The idea is that we do our best and then fall back
gracefully.
This is a big change, because Servo was using `u64` timestamps all over
the place some as raw values taken from `time::precise_time_ns()` and
some as relative offsets from the "navigation start," which is a concept
similar to DOM's `timeOrigin` (but not exactly the same). It's very
difficult to fix this situation without fixing it everywhere as the
`Instant` concept is supposed to be opaque. The good thing is that this
change clears up all ambiguity when passing times as a `time::Duration`
is unit agnostic and a `CrossProcessInstant` represents an absolute
moment in time.
The `time` version of `Duration` is used because it can both be negative
and is also serializable.
Good things:
- No need too pass around `time` and `time_precise` any longer.
`CrossProcessInstant` is also precise and monotonic.
- The distinction between a time that is unset or at `0` (at some kind
of timer epoch) is now gone.
There still a lot of work to do to clean up timing, but this is the
first step. In general, I've tried to preserve existing behavior, even
when not spec compliant, as much as possible. I plan to submit followup
PRs fixing some of the issues I've noticed.

This is the start of the organization of types that are in their own
crates in order to break dependency cycles between other crates. The
idea here is that putting these packages into their own directory is the
first step toward cleaning them up. They have grown organically and it
is difficult to explain to new folks where to put new shared types. Many
of these crates contain more than traits or don't contain traits at all.
Notably, `script_traits` isn't touched because it is vendored from
Gecko. Eventually this will move to `third_party`.
This will ultimately make it simpler to update crate dependencies and
reduce duplicate when specifying requirements. Generally, this change
does not touch dependencies that are only used by a single crate. We
could consider moving them to workspace dependencies in the future.
* Add support for clip masks on text runs.
* Fix atomic ordering of items with multiple shadows.
* Update to bincode + ipc-channel with optimizations.
* Fix some plane splitting precision errors.
* Improve the anti-aliasing quality significantly.
* Add internal ClipChain support.
* Fix diacritic glyphs on Linux.
This commit adds the `--profiler-trace-path` flag. When combined with `-p` to
enable profiling, it dumps a profile as a self-contained HTML file to the given
path. The profile visualizes the traced operations as a gant-chart style
timeline.
* Sections like `[dependencies.foo]` can be entries in a `[dependencies]`
section with the `{key = value}` syntax.
* Per-target dependencies can be expressed with more general `cfg(…)`
conditions instead of exact target triples:

This commit adds a test crate for the time profiler to `tests/unit/profile`. The
only unit test contained in this crate is a smoke test that the time profiler
thread can be created and destroyed. It serves as a place for adding new tests
in the future.
