Skia now uses GPU-accelerated painting on Linux if Vulkan is available.
Most of the performance gain is currently negated by reading the GPU
backend back into RAM to pass it to the Browser process. In the future,
this could be improved by sharing GPU-allocated memory across the
Browser and WebContent processes.
If Metal context and IOSurface are available, Skia painter will use
Ganesh GPU backend on macOS, which is noticeably faster than the default
CPU backend.
Painting pipeline:
1. (WebContent) Allocate IOSurface for backing store
2. (WebContent) Allocate MTLTexture that wraps IOSurface
3. (WebContent) Paint into MTLTexture using Skia
4. (Browser) Wrap IOSurface into Gfx::Painter and use
QPainter/CoreGraphics to blit backing store into viewport.
Things we should improve in the future:
1. Upload textures for images in advance instead of doing that before
every repaint.
2. Teach AppKit client to read directly from IOSurface instead of
copying.
