Subpixel layout: Remove float to LayoutUnit ceil/round function wrappers.

• Component: Layout and Rendering
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

ceiledLayoutUnit()
roundedLayoutUnit()

These functions ceil/round float to LayoutUnit. Their usage are limited and can easily be confused with the snapping functions (snap to css/device pixels).

That doesn't explain the ceil though. This comment is pretty confusing. The caller really needs to know whether ceiling or flooring is appropriate for them.

I don't think the "ForSubPixelLayout" adds anything. I think the name "ceiledLayoutUnit" is as good.

You lost some of the comment here, which I think is useful to explain why this code uses ceil.
