The script pulls in a dependency on the `yaml` python package. Instead
of updating all the docs and CI jobs to account for this, let's guard
calling the script behind our experimental flag instead.
The main incentive is much better performance. We could have gone a bit
further in optimizing the Skia painter to blit glyphs produced by LibGfx
more efficiently from the glyph atlas, but eventually, we also want Skia
to improve correctness.
This change does not completely replace LibGfx in text handling. It's
still used at all stages, including layout, up until display list
replaying.
This change removes wrappers inherited from Gfx::Typeface for WOFF and
WOFF2 fonts. The only purpose they served is owning of ttf ByteBuffer
produced by decoding a WOFF/WOFF2 font. Now new FontData class is
responsible for holding ByteBuffer when a font is constructed from
non-externally owned memory.
It currently doesn't support animated image.
Note that Gfx::Bitmap has no support for get_pixel when the format is
RGBA8888. This is why it has been removed from the tests.
This change makes OpenType::Name::string_for_id handle fonts whose names
are UTF-16-encoded (along with handling UTF-8-encoded names).
Otherwise, without this change, the existing code assumes the names are
UTF-8-encoded, fails gracelessly if they’re not, and crashes.

These used to be enabled in `serenity_compile_options.cmake` for
Serenity builds and were removed in 9b05fb98. This is a slightly more
conservative subset of those, with ones that are enabled by default
omitted.
This should prevent our code quality regressing in the long run.
Skia does not have built-in support for gradient transition hints. So
instead of adding custom gradient painting, now we do the same thing as
other engines and preprocess color stops by replacing transition hints
with a bunch of points lying between adjacent color stops and calculated
using non-linear formula from the spec. As a result we get visually
close enough rendering we would get by applying spec-formula
individually to each point of a gradient.
The Replacement Character (U+FFFD) is most commonly used to signal a
text encoding error, i.e. when a stream of bytes couldn't be converted
to a sequence of code points. For glyphs that don't exist in a
particular font, our rendering logic already does the right thing by
drawing empty boxes (`.notdef`); let's not forcibly turn these into
U+FFFD during rendering.
The ChunkIterator now limits a chunk to using only one font (before, it
was possible to have a chunk with >1 font, when `unicode-range` CSS
property is used).
This change allows us to reduce some complexity in the text shaping and
painting code and makes us compatible with the APIs in Skia and
HarfBuzz.
Typeface is a more widely used name for the data represented by
class previously named VectorFont.
Now:
- Typeface represents decoded font that is not ready for rendering
- ScaledFont represents the combination of typeface and size for
rendering
In upcoming changes, bitmap is going to be used to wrap the memory of
the IOSurface, and we will want to release the corresponding IOSurface
along with the bitmap.
For SerenityOS, we parse emoji metadata from the UCD to learn emoji
groups, subgroups, names, etc. We used this information only in the
emoji picker dialog. It is entirely unused within Ladybird.
This removes our dependence on the UCD emoji file, as we no longer
need any of its information. All we need to know is the file path to
our custom emoji, which we get from Meta/emoji-file-list.txt.
