HTMLParser::the_end() had three spin_until calls that blocked the event
loop: step 5 (deferred scripts), step 7 (ASAP scripts), and step 8
(load event delay). This replaces them with an HTMLParserEndState state
machine that progresses asynchronously via callbacks.
The state machine has three phases matching the three spin_until calls:
- WaitingForDeferredScripts: loops executing ready deferred scripts
- WaitingForASAPScripts: waits for ASAP script lists to empty
- WaitingForLoadEventDelay: waits for nothing to delay the load event
Notification triggers re-evaluate the state machine when conditions
change: HTMLScriptElement::mark_as_ready, stylesheet unblocking in
StyleElementBase/HTMLLinkElement, did_stop_being_active_document, and
DocumentLoadEventDelayer decrements. NavigableContainer state changes
(session history readiness, content navigable cleared, lazy load flag)
also trigger re-evaluation of the load event delay check.
Key design decisions and why:
1. Microtask checkpoint in schedule_progress_check(): The old spin_until
called perform_a_microtask_checkpoint() before checking conditions.
This is critical because HTMLImageElement::update_the_image_data step
8 queues a microtask that creates the DocumentLoadEventDelayer.
Without the checkpoint, check_progress() would see zero delayers and
complete before images start delaying the load event.
2. deferred_invoke in schedule_progress_check():
I tried Core::Timer (0ms), queue_global_task, and synchronous calls.
Timers caused non-deterministic ordering with the HTML event loop's
task processing timer, leading to image layout tests failing (wrong
subtest pass/fail patterns). Synchronous calls fired too early during
image load processing before dimensions were set, causing 0-height
images in layout tests. queue_global_task had task ordering issues
with the session history traversal queue. deferred_invoke runs after
the current callback returns but within the same event loop pump,
giving the right balance.
3. Navigation load event guard (m_navigation_load_event_guard): During
cross-document navigation, finalize_a_cross_document_navigation step
2 calls set_delaying_load_events(false) before the session history
traversal activates the new document. This creates a transient state
where the parent's load event delay check sees the about:blank (which
has ready_for_post_load_tasks=true) as the active document and
completes prematurely.
