Bug 170324 – Resource Load Statistics: Check if the store exists before clearing it

• Component: WebCore Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[John Wilander]

Non-web clients may delete website data records. In such cases the shared observer will not have a store to clear so we should check that it exists.

We should audit the code for other cases like this, since we now realize there are other WK2 clients that are not browsers.

Agreed. The root cause is the static sharedObserver() getter which anyone can call, no matter how they’ve set up the WebsiteDataStore. I'll land this and take another look.
