This is a prepatory commit to be able to handle DOM mutations. Once a
node actor is created, the DOM node it is created for must continue to
be associated with the same actor even after DOM mutations. This change
stores an identifier on the node actor, and only creates new actors when
an actor for a node does not exist.
The pattern of:
auto tab = get_tab();
auto walker = get_walker();
if (tab && walker) {
if (auto node = walker->dom_node(node_id)) {
delegate().do_something(tab->description(), node);
}
}
Is getting a bit unergonomic and is often repeated. This patch just adds
a helper to WalkerActor to do most of this work, so now we have:
if (auto node = WalkerActor::dom_node_for(get_walker(), node_id)) {
delegate().do_something(node->tab->description(), node);
}
There is a lot needed all at once to actually inspect a tab's DOM tree.
It begins with requesting a "watcher" from a TabActor. It seems there
can be many types of watchers, but here we implement the "frame" watcher
only. The watcher creates an "inspector", which in turn creates a
"walker", which is the actor ultimately responsible for serializing and
inspecting the DOM tree.
In between all that, the DevTools client will send a handful of other
informational requests. If we do not reply to these, the client will not
move forward with the walker. For example, the CSSPropertiesActor will
be asked for a list of all known CSS properties.
