It's a pointless abstraction that propagates the obsolete chan terminology,
swaps the order in which the sender and receiver are returned, and hides a
source of panics.
* 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:

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!
process parts.
This will make it easier to adapt to IPC.
The trickiest part here was to make script tasks spawn new layout tasks
directly instead of having the pipeline do it for them. The latter
approach will not work in multiprocess mode, because layout and script
must run in the same address space and the pipeline cannot inject tasks
into another process.
The basic idea is it's safe to output an image for reftest by testing:
- That the compositor doesn't have any animations active.
- That the compositor is not waiting on any outstanding paint messages to arrive.
- That the script tasks are "idle" and therefore won't cause reflow.
- This currently means page loaded, onload fired, reftest-wait not active, first reflow triggered.
- It could easily be expanded to handle pending timers etc.
- That the "epoch" that the layout tasks have last laid out after script went idle, is reflected by the compositor in all visible layers for that pipeline.
A rebuild after touching components/profile/mem.rs now takes 48 seconds (and
only rebuilds `profile` and `servo`) which is much lower than it used to be.
In comparison, a rebuild after touching components/profile_traits/mem.rs takes
294 seconds and rebuilds many more crates.
This change also removes some unnecessary crate dependencies in `net` and
`net_traits`.
