Bug 228630 – Add a HashTraits implementation for LayoutUnit

• Component: Layout and Rendering
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Martin Robinson]

In the scroll snapping code we are converting LayoutUnits to float in order to hash them. This runs the risk of introducing floating point errors.

I prefer DefaultHash<int>::hash(p.rawValue()) rather than bitwise_cast.

I prefer not having unnecessary LayoutUnitHash class. Simply merge the members to DefaultHash<WebCore::LayoutUnit>.

Thanks for the review! I've uploaded a new version of the change addressing these concerns.

This is great. Note that this could have been done entirely within ScrollSnapOffsetsInfo.cpp, but I think it’s OK as is.

Comments should say *why* not just *what*. What guarantees these values aren’t needed in hash tables? Why are these good choices?

I've done my best to explain the reasoning for these choices.
