[css-cascade] makeprop.pl should sort deferred properties at the end

[Oriol Brufau]

Currently, the CSSPropertyID enum is sorted like this:

1. Special meaning: CSSPropertyInvalid and CSSPropertyCustom
2. High priority properties: firstCSSProperty..lastHighPriorityProperty
3. Low priority properties: (lastHighPriorityProperty+1)..lastCSSProperty

However, among low priority ones, there are some that are not cascaded with the others, they are deferred and applied in parse order.
These should be sorted into their own category at the end:

1. Special meaning: CSSPropertyInvalid and CSSPropertyCustom
2. High priority properties: firstCSSProperty..lastHighPriorityProperty
3. Low priority properties: (lastHighPriorityProperty+1)..lastLowPriorityProperty
4. Deferred properties: (lastLowPriorityProperty+1)..lastCSSProperty

This would help bug 238260.

Since this is a generated file, I suggest we generate first/last constants for each section.

    first/lastCSSProperty
    first/lastHighPriorityCSSProperty
    first/lastLowPriorityCSSProperty
    first/lastDeferredCSSProperty

That way, most code that wants to make checks can be written without depending on the ordering at all; the few places that do depend on the ordering can be written in the clearest fashion possible.

Somewhere we could even put functions so we don't have to use these constants directly so often:

    bool isHighPriority(CSSPropertyID);
    bool isLowPriority(CSSPropertyID);
    bool isDeferred(CSSPropertyID);

Or whatever predicates we need. I think it helps when code can write such things so they read cleanly even if they are just expanding to < and > checks.

Yes, actually StyleBuilder.cpp already has

  static const CSSPropertyID firstLowPriorityProperty = static_cast<CSSPropertyID>(lastHighPriorityProperty + 1);
