Bug 258558 – `PageGroup`'s `Preferences`are ignored when creating `WKWebView`

• Status: NEW
• Component: Tools / Tests

[Vitaly Dyackhov]

There are two APIs to create a `WKWebView`:
- `PlatformWebView(WKPageConfigurationRef configuration)`
- `PlatformWebView(WKContextRef contextRef, WKPageGroupRef pageGroupRef)`

If we want to set some preferences, it's quite straightforward using `WKPageConfigurationRef`:
```
auto configuration = adoptWK(WKPageConfigurationCreate());
auto preferences = adoptWK(WKPreferencesCreate());
WKPageConfigurationSetPreferences(configuration.get(), preferences.get());
```

When using the context and the page group, we don't have access to the configuration object.
But it's possible to set preferences to the page group:
```
WKRetainPtr<WKPageGroupRef> pageGroup = adoptWK(WKPageGroupCreateWithIdentifier(Util::toWK("GetUserMedia").get()));
WKPreferencesRef preferences = WKPageGroupGetPreferences(pageGroup.get());
```

When we then create an instance of `WKWebView` we copy `WKPageConfigruation` into `WKWebViewConfigruation` and pass them as a parameter:
```
auto configuration = adoptNS([WKWebViewConfiguration new]);
if (auto* preferences = WKPageConfigurationGetPreferences(pageConfiguration))
    configuration.get().preferences = (WKPreferences *)preferences;
m_view = [[wkViewSubclass alloc] initWithFrame:rect configuration:configuration.get()];
```
But we ignore pageGroup's preferences.

I must say, that it's really confusing to have two levels of `Preferences`:
WKPageConfiguration
    |-WKPreferences
    |-WKPageGroup
        |-WKPreferences
but for now, we should at least copy pageGroup's preferences to WebViewConfiguration.
