In a later PR, DomRoot<T> will become a type alias of Root<Dom<T>>,
where Root<T> will be able to handle all the things that need to be
rooted that have a stable traceable address that doesn't move for the
whole lifetime of the root. Stay tuned.
Updated string_cache, html5ever, xml5ever and selectors in Cargo.toml files and Cargo.lock.
Removed references to string_cache_plugin.
Import atom! and ns! from string_cache.
Replaced ns!("") by ns!().
Replaced ns!(XML) and co by ns!(xml) and co.
Replaced atom!(foo) by atom!("foo").
Replaced Atom::from_slice by Atom::from.
Replaced atom.as_slice() by &*atom.
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.
This should make it somewhat easier to experiment with alternative
representations in the future. To reduce churn, this commit leaves the String
field public, though.
Also, this will allow us to use the default String type to represent the IDL
USVString type, which explicitly forbids unpaired surrogates, ans as such is
a better match to the Rust String type.
