Pages using WebGLRenderingContext cannot go into the PageCache because WebGLRenderingContextBase::canSuspendForPageCache() returns false.

Since we have code for handling context loss and restoring it, it seems like we should be able to force a synthetic context loss upon suspending, and try to restore it upon resuming.

I don't have time to work on this right now. CC'ing Roger in case he has feedback or is interested in fixing this. Otherwise, I'll try and find time to tackle this later.
