This adds a settings box to about:settings to allow users to limit the
disk cache size. This will override the default 5 GiB limit. We do not
automatically delete cache data if the new limit is suddenly less than
the used disk space; this will happen on the next request. This allows
multiple changes to the settings in a row without thrashing the cache.
In the future, we can add more toggles, such as disabling the disk
cache altogether.
The in-memory HTTP Fetch cache currently keeps the realm which created
each cache entry alive indefinitely. This patch migrates this cache to
LibHTTP, to ensure it is completely unaware of any JS objects.
Now that we are not interacting with Fetch response objects, we can no
longer use Streams infrastructure to pipe the response body into the
Fetch response. Fetch also ultimately creates the cache response once
the HTTP response headers have arrived. So the LibHTTP cache will hold
entries in a pending list until we have received the entire response
body. Then it is moved to a completed list and may be used thereafter.
We currently have two ongoing implementations of RFC 9111, HTTP caching.
In order to consolidate these, this patch moves the implementation from
RequestServer to LibHTTP for re-use within LibWeb.
The end goal here is for LibHTTP to be the home of our RFC 9111 (HTTP
caching) implementation. We currently have one implementation in LibWeb
for our in-memory cache and another in RequestServer for our disk cache.
The implementations both largely revolve around interacting with HTTP
headers. But in LibWeb, we are using Fetch's header infra, and in RS we
are using are home-grown header infra from LibHTTP.
So to give these a common denominator, this patch replaces the LibHTTP
implementation with Fetch's infra. Our existing LibHTTP implementation
was not particularly compliant with any spec, so this at least gives us
a standards-based common implementation.
This migration also required moving a handful of other Fetch AOs over
to LibHTTP. (It turns out these AOs were all from the Fetch/Infra/HTTP
folder, so perhaps it makes sense for LibHTTP to be the implementation
of that entire set of facilities.)
The only thing in HTTPResponse being used is reason_phrase_for_code,
which is just a static helper method. Move it to its own file and remove
HTTPResponse.
This is just one less thing to have to port to an upcoming HTTP header
refactor.
