For single element arrays use the pointer into the CFDataRef instead of copying data

[Pratik Solanki]

This is an optimization when USE(NETWORK_CFDATA_ARRAY_CALLBACK) is available. Generally, WebCore copies the data returned from CFNetwork into its own buffers once the resource is done loading. However, if the resource is cached, CFNetwork will return us a CFArrayRef with exactly 1 CFDataRef in it. In such a case, it might be beneficial to not copy the data and just use the byte pointer i.e. call CFDataGetBytePtr() and use that memory directly.

Retracting. This needs another tweak.

Looks reasonable to me. Brady might want to have a look too, as he's been refactoring adjacent code.

It is helpful to edit ChangeLogs to remove useless gunk like this. ChangeLogs are meant for human consumption, so anything you can do to make reading easier is a plus (but obviously, not hugely important for somethign trivial like this).

Star goes to the left.

> +        return reinterpret_cast<const char *>(CFDataGetBytePtr(m_dataArray.at(0).get()));

Ditto.

Thanks for the review. I'll commit with the changes suggested. I also had to change a variable name since the compiler got confused about buffer being a const char * and a member function.

This would be slightly nicer with the variable definition inside the if.

> +    if (m_dataArray.size() == 1)

This would be slightly nicer as an early return.

An alternate solution in cases like that is to use this->functionName syntax to call a member function that is shadowed by a same-named local variable. We like that because it lets us use the cleanest simplest names for both.

Since the Apple guys are on vacation, and you have executed the changes ap and Darin asked for, r=me.
