Bug 22757 – break out text caret paint as enabled feature

• Component: Platform
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Cary Clark]

Android draws input text in a separate thread using a java-based text view. Suppress drawing the caret when the feature is disabled and a text field is selected, to reduce the painting and invalidates that Android responds to.

ChangeLog has tabs in it. This makes it harder to land the patch, because the committer has to change the tabs to spaces. Please don't use tabs in WebKit changes.

Patch otherwise looks fine. r=me
