This is an alternate fix for the issue addressed by commit
8156531477.
Turns out we don't want to isomorphic decode the cookie header, but
decode it as UTF-8 to align with document.cookie. That will be
addressed in a subsequent commit.
This patch introduces a cookie cache in the WebContent process to reduce
blocking IPC calls when JS accesses document.cookie. The UI process now
maintains a cookie version counter per-domain in shared memory. When JS
reads document.cookie, we check whether we have a valid cached cookie by
comparing the current shared version to the last used version. If they
match, the cached cookie is returned without IPC.
This optimization is based on Chromium's shared versioning, in which it
was observed that 87% of document.cookie accesses were redundant. See:
https://blog.chromium.org/2024/06/introducing-shared-memory-versioning-to.html
Note that this cache only supports document.cookie, not HTTP Cookie
headers. HTTP cookies are attached to requests with varying URLs and
paths. The cookies that match the document URL might not match the
request URL, which we wouldn't know from WebContent. So attaching the
cached document cookie would be incorrect.
On https://twinings.co.uk, we see approximately 600 document.cookie
requests while the page loads. This patch reduces the time spent in
the document.cookie getter from ~45ms to 2-3ms.
Rather than splitting this between Cookie and ParsedCookie, let's just
put them all in Cookie. This just makes it more obvious where to put an
upcoming helper.
