Any methods of ServiceWorkerThreadProxy which are marked with
WEBCORE_EXPORT and WEBCORE_TESTSUPPORT_EXPORT aren't exported
from WebKit.dll because any symbols in a object file of
ServiceWorkerThreadProxy.cpp are not referenced in WebKit.dll.

This is a similar issue with Bug 196866.

There are 3 ways to solve:

1. bundle SWContextManager.cpp and ServiceWorkerThreadProxy.cpp as Unified source build
2. Use OBJECT library for WebCore (Bug 196866 Comment 4)
3. Use /WHOLEARCHIVE:WebCore.lib (Bug 196866 Comment 4)
4. Uninline some method of ServiceWorkerThreadProxy which are used by SWContextManager

WIP patch for approach #4

[Fujii Hironori]

I prefer OBJECT library approach because it doesn't generate unnecessary WebCore.lib and WebCoreTestSupport.lib, and it can really solve this issue.
However, a caveat of is Apple Internal builds can't use OBJECT library for WebCore because it doesn't generate the static libs.
I'm going to use OBJECT library only for non-intenal builds.

[Fujii Hironori]

Linking TestWebCoreLib.dll reports a lot of warnings because
WebCoreTestSupport is importing WebCore symbols by using dllimport,
but those symbols are not exported by WebCore itself.

TestWebCoreLib shouldn't link WebCoreTestSupport.

GTK and WPE port EWS can't compile TestWebCore.

WebCoreTestSupport has a public include path to WebCore_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES.

> target_include_directories(WebCoreTestSupport SYSTEM PUBLIC ${WebCoreTestSupport_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES} ${WebCore_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES})

Hmm..

Is this part not needed for Apple-internal Windows builds?

Nope. Apple internal builds invokes CMake under each sub-directory. This is irrelevant for it.

AppleWin build fails because WebCore Object library is missing makesafeseh.obj.

If enable_language(ASM_MASM) is used, the problem of r194434 will reoccur.
