[WPE] Send client host fd and library name as web process creation parameters

• Component: WPE WebKit
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Carlos Garcia Campos]

Instead of using command line arguments. The code is simpler and we don't need wpe specific code in process launcher glib implementation.

isEmpty() here, should avoid potential problems of passing empty strings to wpe_loader_init().

It's a CString not a String, so we don't have isEmpty there. We could explicitly check data()[0] != '\0' but I don't think it's needed for something sent the from the UI process. The only reason we are checking this is because wpe_loader_get_loaded_implementation_library_name() is new api, so when libwpe < 0.2 we receive a null string here.

The condition here should prevent wpe_loader_init() misbehaving. Currently it only covers a null CString, which is fine. But a non-null CString with a strlen() of 0 will pass the condition, but the dlopen() call in wpe_loader_init() will end up returning a handle to the process executable, which is not desired.

More than depending on what the UIProcess sends over IPC here, it should be preferable to validate arguments properly on the spot.
