after navigation.
The first bug was that iframes were not reflowed in their parent DOM
when the child page navigated. This is fixed by simply having the
constellation notify the appropriate script thread when navigation
occurs.
The second bug was that the compositor was unable to adjust the pipeline
for existing iframe layers, only new ones. This patch adds logic to do
that.
Closes#8081.
Also change when pipelines become active.
This makes the constellation activate a pipeline as the current frame
when it is ready to do initial reflow, rather than when it is ready
to paint.
This fixes a number of intermittent failures that could previously occur
if an iframe was not visible - which would mean it was never moved from
a pending frame in the constellation to an active frame.
(It happens that webrender exposes these intermittents as permanent failures).
Add slow path for hit testing of iframe behind positioned content layer
Fixes browser.html blocker #8759. r? @pcwalton
This adds a slow path for cases where the compositor's layer-based hit testing is incorrect. If the script task discovers that a mouse event should have been dispatched to an iframe, it bounces the event back to the constellation to be forwarded to the correct pipeline.
This isn't terribly slow (on the slow path, it adds one extra round-trip message between script and constellation), but if we want to optimize this better we could instead replace the compositor's layer hit testing with display list hit testing in the paint task. This would be a more complicated change that I think we should save for a follow-up.
This only fixes mouse input for now. A basically-identical change will be needed for touch-screen input, whether we stick with this approach or switch to the paint task.

Move Stylesheet loading and ownership from the layout task into HTML elements
Stylesheets for `HTMLLinkElement`s are now loaded by the resource task, triggered by the element in question. Stylesheets are owned by the elements they're associated with, which can be `HTMLStyleElement`, `HTMLLinkElement`, and `HTMLMetaElement` (for `<meta name="viewport">).
Additionally, the quirks mode stylesheet (just as the user and user agent stylesheets a couple of commits ago), is implemented as a lazy static, loaded once per process and shared between all documents.
This all has various nice consequences:
- Stylesheet loading becomes a non-blocking operation.
- Stylesheets are removed when the element they're associated with is removed from the document.
- It'll be possible to implement the CSSOM APIs that require direct access to the stylesheets (i.e., ~ all of them).
- Various subtle correctness issues are fixed.
One piece of interesting follow-up work would be to move parsing of external stylesheets to the resource task, too. Right now, it happens in the link element once loading is complete, so blocks the script task. Moving it to the resource task would probably be fairly straight-forward as it doesn't require access to any external state.
Depends on #7979 because without that loading stylesheets asynchronously breaks lots of content.
