This doesn't change any functionality, but it's the first step towards removing SubpageId.
Adding this change now will allow us to gradually change over code referencing subpage id rather than in one massive PR.
Introduces a namespace for pipeline ID generation - there is a namespace for the constellation thread, and one per script thread.
each iframe.
The old code that attempted to do this during layout wasn't able to work
for multiple reasons: it couldn't know where the iframe was going to be
on the page (because of nested iframes), and at the time it was building
the display list for a fragment it couldn't know where that fragment was
going to be in page coordinates.
This patch rewrites that code so that both the sizes and positions of
iframes are determined by the compositor. Layout layerizes all iframes
and marks the iframe layers with the appropriate pipeline and subpage
IDs so that the compositor can place them correctly. This approach is
similar in spirit to Gecko's `RefLayer` infrastructure. The logic that
determines when it is time to take the screenshot for reftests has been
significantly revamped to deal with this change in delegation of
responsibility.
Additionally, this code removes the infrastructure that sends layout
data back to the layout task to be destroyed, since it is now all
thread-safe and can be destroyed on the script task.
The failing tests now fail because of a pre-existing bug related to
intrinsic heights and borders on inline replaced elements. They happened
to pass before because we never rendered the iframes at all, which meant
they never had a chance to draw the red border the tests expect to not
render!
Closes#7377.
This allows both boolean and string-type preferences. It
also implements a system where prefs that are read from a
configuration file can be reset back to their initial value,
which is useful in a number of cases e.g. when running tests
to ensure that each test starts with the same values for
the prefs.
Combine script profiling with profile crates. Fixes#7514.
The script crate had its own built-in profiling which was basically doing the same thing as the profile crate. This wraps the internal profiling around the main profile functionality. Script-related tasks are now added to the ProfilerCategory enum.

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.
an IPC channel instead.
Because this used a boxed trait object to invoke messages across a
process boundary, and boxed trait objects are not supported across IPC,
we spawn a helper thread inside the compositor to perform the marshaling
for us.
