Previously we would resolve font features
(https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts-4/#feature-variation-precedence)
per element, while this works for the current subset of the font feature
resolution algorithm that we support, some as yet unimplemented parts
require us to know whether we are resolving against a CSS @font-face
rule, and if so which one (e.g. applying descriptors from the @font-face
rule, deciding which @font-feature-values rules to apply, etc).
To achieve this we store the data required to resolve font features in a
struct and pass that to `FontComputer` which resolves the font features
and stores them with the computed `Font`.
We no longer need to invalidate the font shaping cache when features
change since the features are defined per font (and therefore won't ever
change).
Enhance `Font::harfbuzz_font()` to include font variation information
when creating HarfBuzz fonts. This required updating the `Font` struct
to store details about font variations.
I wasn’t aware of this, but it also fixed some visual artifacts with
variable fonts, so big thanks to @Lubrsi for the suggestion!
This patch introduces a per-Gfx::Font cache for harfbuzz text shaping
results. As long as the same OpenType features are used, we now cache
the results of harfbuzz shaping, saving massive amounts of time during
text layout.
As an example, it saves multiple seconds when loading the ECMAScript
specification at <https://tc39.es/ecma262>. Before this change, harfbuzz
shaping was taking up roughly 11% of a profile of loading that page.
The cache brings it down to 1.8%.
Note that the cache currently grows unbounded. I've left a FIXME about
adding some limits.
