Add a clip in RenderView::layout to avoid doing offscreen paint

[Julien Chaffraix]

Currently in RenderView.cpp, there is a FIXME about adding a clip to the LayoutState.

Path forthcoming.

This one is for Hyatt.

As discussed with David Hyatt and Dan Bernstein, the win is odd and should be confirmed on ToT (I had done some rough testing on ToT and good experiment on an old bramch) before thinking of integrating this patch.

Clearing the review flag to give me some time for performance experiments on ToT.

I checked and we don't have FIXME in Webkit Source, which this patch was trying to modify and also this is current source:

https://searchfox.org/wubkat/source/Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderView.cpp#183


void RenderView::layout()
{
    StackStats::LayoutCheckPoint layoutCheckPoint;
    if (!document().paginated())
        m_pageLogicalSize = { };

    if (shouldUsePrintingLayout()) {
        if (!m_pageLogicalSize)
            m_pageLogicalSize = LayoutSize(logicalWidth(), 0_lu);
        m_minPreferredLogicalWidth = m_pageLogicalSize->width();
        m_maxPreferredLogicalWidth = m_minPreferredLogicalWidth;
    }

    // Use calcWidth/Height to get the new width/height, since this will take the full page zoom factor into account.
    bool relayoutChildren = !shouldUsePrintingLayout() && (width() != viewWidth() || height() != viewHeight());
    if (relayoutChildren) {
        setChildNeedsLayout(MarkOnlyThis);

        for (auto& box : childrenOfType<RenderBox>(*this)) {
            if (box.hasRelativeLogicalHeight()
                || box.style().logicalHeight().isPercentOrCalculated()
                || box.style().logicalMinHeight().isPercentOrCalculated()
                || box.style().logicalMaxHeight().isPercentOrCalculated()
                || box.isSVGRootOrLegacySVGRoot()
                )
                box.setChildNeedsLayout(MarkOnlyThis);
        }
    }

    ASSERT(!frameView().layoutContext().layoutState());
    if (!needsLayout())
        return;

    ensureLayoutState().setViewportSize(frameView().size());

    LayoutStateMaintainer statePusher(*this, { }, false, valueOrDefault(m_pageLogicalSize).height(), m_pageLogicalHeightChanged);

    m_pageLogicalHeightChanged = false;

    RenderBlockFlow::layout();

#ifndef NDEBUG
    frameView().layoutContext().checkLayoutState();
#endif
    clearNeedsLayout();
}

Do we need anything else? Or we can close now?

I don't think we need this.
