This updates the Android WebViewImplementationNative to match changes
made in commit 5285e22f2a.
We remove the async_set_viewport_rect call because the parent
ViewImplementation::handle_resize call does that for us.
With this change, chrome no longer has to ask the WebContent process
to paint the next frame into a specified bitmap. Instead, it allocates
bitmaps and sends them to WebContent, which then lets chrome know when
the painting is done.
This work is a preparation to move the execution of painting commands
into a separate thread. Now, it is much easier to start working on the
next frame while the current one is still rendering. This is because
WebContent does not have to inform chrome that the current frame is
ready before it can request the next frame.
Additionally, as a side bonus, we can now eliminate the
did_invalidate_content_rect and did_change_selection IPC calls. These
were used solely for the purpose of informing chrome that it needed to
request a repaint.
Timers run in their own thread, to take advantage of existing Java
Executor features. By hooking into ALooper, we can spin the main
Activity's UI thread event loop without causing a fuss, or spinning the
CPU by just polling our event loop constantly.
This will let us spawn a new process for an Android Service to handle
all our WebContent needs. The ServiceConnection is manged by each
WebView. The lifecycle of the Service is not quite clear yet, but each
bindService call will get a unique Messenger that can be used to
transfer the WebContent side of the LibIPC socketpair we use in other
ports.
This allows our WebViewImplementationNative class to paint into an
Android Bitmap class from the onDraw() view event. We also set the
viewport geometry from the view since we're setting the Kotlin Bitmap
at the same time.
This template app from Android Studio should hopefully be more fun to
work on than the Qt wrapped application we were using before. :^)
It currently builds the native code using gradle rules, and has a stub
WebViewImplementationNative class that will wrap a c++ class of the same
name that inhertis from WebView::ViewImplementation. Spawning helper
processes and creating proper views in Kotlin is next on the list.
