The style candidate cache had regressed a few times (see #12534), and my
intuition is that being able to disable all style sharing with a single rule in
the page is really unfortunate.
This commit redesigns the style sharing cache in order to be a optimistic cache,
but then reject candidates if they match different sibling-affecting selectors
in the page, for example.
So far the numbers have improved, but not so much as I'd wanted (~10%/20% of
non-incremental restyling time in general). The current implementation is really
dumb though (we recompute and re-match a lot of stuff), so we should be able to
optimise it quite a bit.
I have different ideas for improving it (that may or may not work), apart of the
low-hanging fruit like don't re-matching candidates all the time but I have to
measure the real impact.
Also, I need to verify it against try.
Support -moz-binding in geckolib
Thank you for contributing to Servo! Please replace each `[ ]` by `[X]` when the step is complete, and replace `__` with appropriate data:
- [X] `./mach build -d` does not report any errors
- [X] `./mach test-tidy --faster` does not report any errors
- [ ] These changes fix #__ (github issue number if applicable).
Either:
- [ ] There are tests for these changes OR
- [x] These changes do not require tests because changes target stylo
Pull requests that do not address these steps are welcome, but they will require additional verification as part of the review process.

* Sections like `[dependencies.foo]` can be entries in a `[dependencies]`
section with the `{key = value}` syntax.
* Per-target dependencies can be expressed with more general `cfg(…)`
conditions instead of exact target triples:

In rust-url 1.0 the `Url` struct is going to have private fields, and there
is no way to to create an aribitrary one without going through the parser.
The plugin never had a clear demonstrated performance benefit,
it was made mostly because it was possible and relatively easy at the time.
Generalize the style structs
This allows geckolib to pass gecko style structs and have the style system write to them directly, provided we implement all the traits.
