Automatic update from web-platform-tests
CSS highlight processing model

This patch implements the inheritance-based propagation for highlight
pseudo-elements, as described in css-pseudo’s #highlight-cascade and
introduced in w3c/csswg-drafts#2474.

Highlight pseudos like ::selection were historically implemented such
that only the ::selection selector (*::selection) worked intuitively.
The spec’s processing model essentially makes it possible to define
both general ::selection styles and more specific ::selection styles.

We add a feature (HighlightInheritance) and a new computed style extra
field of type scoped_refptr<StyleHighlightData>, which in turn points
to four refcounted ComputedStyle instances, one for each highlight.
Only a handful of properties are applicable, but reusing ComputedStyle
like this simplifies the applying code, and allows us to share many of
the field groups between instances anyway.

We update the initial style singleton to point to a set of four empty
highlight styles, which we only use when the feature is enabled.

When the feature is disabled (or resolving custom ::highlight styles),
there is no functional change. Highlight styles are lazily computed on
paint’s demand, inherit only from the originating element styles, and
we store the result in the Element’s pseudo cache (StyleCachedData).

When the feature is enabled, we compute highlight styles during the
originating element’s recalc (RecalcOwnStyle), skipping any highlight
pseudos that the element had no matching rules for (a question that
can already be answered thanks to pseudo bits).

Style resolution is largely unchanged: we start with default styles,
then use output of the cascade to change those styles. But defaulting
is much easier for highlight styles: all properties are inherited, so
we can simply clone the whole ComputedStyle.

WPT already has some tests (css/css-pseudo/cascade-highlight-*), but
more thorough test coverage will land in these patches:

• web-platform-tests/wpt#30688
• web-platform-tests/wpt#30692
