Split DisplayList::Recorder into an abstract base class and a concrete implementation

[Wenson Hsieh]

More work towards streaming display lists.

This refactoring will allow us to introduce a WebKit2-specific subclass of DisplayList::Recorder in a subsequent patch, which is similar to the existing DisplayList::Recorder object, but immediately sends its display list items to the GPU Process through the IPC stream connection instead of appending them to an instance of WebCore::DisplayList.

Other places we use Concrete. Not sure which is better.

Cool. Enabling this code sharing was my biggest concern.

Is this necessary?

Who is using m_isNested now? Can it be deleted?

It seems unfortunate that the appendStateChange logic had to be moved from one centralized place into all its callers, duplicating the call. Is there a better way? Can we at least do some code sharing?

I would have renamed these in a follow-up patch, to keep this one smaller.

Looks like you're removing this. Perhaps the comment can be removed too?

Thanks for the review!

So I chatted with Tim (proposing either ConcreteRecorder and RecorderImpl), and we decided on RecorderImpl. Overall, we seem to use FooImpl a lot more than ConcreteFoo (I think ConcreteImageBuffer is actually the only instance?)

Indeed! This refactoring allows us to avoid a lot of the duplicate code that was in my hacky WIP.

> Source/WebCore/platform/graphics/cg/GraphicsContextCG.cpp:33

Looks like this change is also unnecessary, so I'll change this back too.

It's not — good catch! Reverted this bit.

Good catch, it looks like this is actually *just* used inside `RecorderImpl::~RecorderImpl()` for a single logging statement. I'll just move this into the RecorderImpl, and remove the protected getter.

Yeah, this is a bit unfortunate :/

I wasn't sure how to avoid this though, since we no longer templatize item recording methods, since they're now virtual. I'll add a FIXME in `appendStateChangeItemIfNecessary()`, and continue to think of ways to improve this.

Hm..I'm not sure how this would work though, since these are new virtual methods (not renamed versions of existing methods).

Oh, I moved `canDrawImageBuffer` into the protected section of the class, but forgot to move this comment. I'll move the FIXME to match the `canDrawImageBuffer` again.

Sad to hear it. I personally like Concrete so much better than Impl!

But without our traditions … our lives would be as shaky as a programmer on the roof.
