This patch introduces infrastructure for the rule tree, and constructs it.
We don't use it yet, nor have good heuristics for GC'ing it, but this should not
happen anymore once we store the rule node reference in the node.
I haven't messed up with memory orders because I want to do a try run with it,
then mess with them.
Take down the ApplicableDeclarationsCache, use the rule tree for doing the cascade.
We don't need this for Gecko, and it's hard to implement in that case because
there's nowhere obvious to put it (we don't plan to create TSDs for non-dirty
nodes, and non-dirty nodes can have dirty children which require the
children_to_process atomic). There are various solutions here, but punting is
the easiest.
We'll need to rethink this if/when we need to do a bottom-up traversal for
Gecko.
This commit adds hooks to the Servo style traversal to avoid traversing all the
DOM for every restyle. Additionally it changes the behavior of the dirty flag to
be propagated top down, to prevent extra overhead when an element is dirtied.
This commit doesn't aim to change the behavior on Servo just yet, since Servo
might rely on a full bottom up reconstruction of the flows. I'll need to double
check and implement that separately.
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.

This patch does a number of things, unfortunately all at once:
* Hoists a large subset of the layout wrapper functionality into the style system.
* Merges TElementAttributes into the newly-created TElement.
* Reorganizes LayoutData by style vs layout, and removes LayoutDataShared.
* Simplifies the API for borrowing style/layout data.
There's still more to do to make the style system usable standalone, but
this is a good start.
