Swift WebBackForwardList (off by default) - C++ call tweaks
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306876
rdar://169533837
Reviewed by Richard Robinson.
We're introducing a Swift version of the Back Forward List. For the general
design and rationale, see
https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/55393
It will be landed as a series of separate commits in order to ease code review.
In this commit we change various bits of C++ code which call methods on
WebBackForwardList, to be aware of slightly different calling conventions
when calling APIs on the Swift version.
Specifically, we took a decision NOT to allow Swift types to be kept in
Ref<T> and RefPtr<T>, because it's redundant - the Swift type is itself
reference counted. This could have been achieved using specialized traits,
but was felt to be confusing, and that it was better to add various #ifdefs
instead - that's what this commit does.
A few specific notes:
* WTF::Functions and WTF::CompletionHandlers need to be explicitly packaged
up to pass them into Swift; this is because we can only own them as
reference-counted types in Swift.
* Often we need to use . with Swift types instead of -> with Ref.
* Instead of a RefPtr, we store a std::optional of the Swift type.
