Parallel display list construction hasn't been shown to give any
performance gains. It is also incompatible with the current flat display
list implementation. Once flat display lists have landed, we can explore
possible benefits of parallel construction once again.
Add WebRender integration to Servo.
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!

Ensure when calculating font metrics that the total line height matches requested line height.
This fixes rounding accuracy issues that could result in layout producing results off by a small number of Au.

This is unfortunate, but making that useful would require parameterizing
`SharedLayoutContext` and `LayoutContext` depending on the
`SelectorImpl` (which is a **huge** work right now).
Probably the easier way to do it, and probably the one that keeps the
layout code more legible, and since there won't be multiple
implementations at the same compilation unit, would be "defining" a
default implementation for layout via feature flags.
That should allow us to remove the components/style/servo.rs file.
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.

absolutely-positioned flows separately when storing overflow.
This code dates back to the time when absolutely positioned flows were
ignored by all of their ancestors up to the containing block. This
hasn't been true for at least a year.
Closes#9306.
Closes#9309.
Is a partial fix for #9308.
