For a long time, `gfx_traits` has held a lot of things unrelated to graphics
and also unrelated to the `gfx` crate (which is mostly about fonts).
This is a cleanup which does a few things:
1. Move non `gfx` crate things out of `gfx_traits`. This is important in
order to prevent dependency cycles with a different integration between
layout, script, and fonts.
2. Rename the `msg` crate to `base`. It didn't really contain anything
to do with messages and instead mostly holds ids, which are used
across many different crates in Servo. This new crate will hold the
*rare* data types that are widely used.
Details:
- All BackgroundHangMonitor-related things from base to a new
`background_hang_monitor_api` crate.
- Moved `TraversalDirection` to `script_traits`
- Moved `Epoch`-related things from `gfx_traits` to `base`.
- Moved `PrintTree` to base. This should be widely useful in Servo.
- Moved `WebrenderApi` from `base` to `webrender_traits` and renamed it
to `WebRenderFontApi`.
This is the start of the organization of types that are in their own
crates in order to break dependency cycles between other crates. The
idea here is that putting these packages into their own directory is the
first step toward cleaning them up. They have grown organically and it
is difficult to explain to new folks where to put new shared types. Many
of these crates contain more than traits or don't contain traits at all.
Notably, `script_traits` isn't touched because it is vendored from
Gecko. Eventually this will move to `third_party`.
