If a user is able to get D3D11, and Software WebRender hasn't been
forced on (either by the Fission experiment or our pref), then we prefer
D3D11 in late beta and release. This will allow users who start with
D3D11 in the GPU process, to fallback to Software WebRender in the GPU
process.

In bug 1680087 we disabled webrender's partial present feature on
Mali-T6xx and T7xx devices due to rendering issues caused by a buggy
implementation in the driver. We have now seen reports of the same
issue on a Mali-T8xx device.
This patch expands the block to include all Mali-Txxx devices. As a
follow up we should make this dependent on the driver version, so
that users with working drivers can take advantage of the feature.

Loading cached shaders with glProgramBinary fails consistently for all
but the most trivial of our shaders on Adreno 3xx, so caching and
attempting to load them is a waste of time. Chromium and other
projects also appear to have disabled their shader caches on Adreno
3xx due to bugs.
This patch moves the gfx.webrender.program-binary-disk pref
declaration from all.js to StaticPrefList.yaml. Rather than directly
using the value of the pref to decide whether to create the shader
cache, we now initialize a Feature in gfxConfigManager with a default
value from the pref and then configure it from the blocklist. On
Android we block the feature on Adreno 3xx devices. The pref remains
true by default on Android and Windows, and false by default on Linux
and Macos.

Fission without WebRender is an unsupported configuration and enrolls
users based on their compositor. However because of our own rollout of
WebRender, a user might start in early beta with WebRender and lose it
in late beta, while they remain enrolled in the Fission experiment.
Also, a user could lose WebRender because of crashes or device reset,
and we may fall back to Basic.
This patch forces Software WebRender as available (but does not override
Hardware WebRender) if Fission is enabled for users enrolled in the
Fission experiment. It also prevents fallback to Basic layers when
disabling acceleration due to crashes and runtime errors, so the user
will be stuck with Software WebRender at a minimum. It also enables
Software WebRender for Windows popups with transparency.

Due to rendering issues reported on a Mali-T628 and Mali-T760, disable
partial present on all Mali-T6xx and T7xx devices. We know that not
all T6xx and T7xx devices are affected, so this is being cautious. The
driver version is probably more important than the GPU model. We
should make the block more precise once more is known about the bug.

We can disable WebRender because the GPU process crashed, or we
encountered a graceful runtime error in WebRender. This patch adds two
new prefs to control how that fallback works.
gfx.webrender.fallback.software-d3d11 controls if WebRender falls back
to Software WebRender + D3D11 compositing. If true, and the user is
allowed to get Software WebRender, we will fallback to Software
WebRender with the D3D11 compositor first.
gfx.webrender.fallback.software controls if WebRender falls back to
Software WebRender. If true, and the user is allowed to get Software
WebRender, we will fallback to Software WebRender without the D3D11
compositor.
gfx.webrender.fallback.basic controls if WebRender or Software
WebRender falls back to Basic. If true, it falls back to Basic.
Otherwise it continues to use Software WebRender without the D3D11
compositor. Note that this means OpenGL on Android.
This patch also means that gfx.webrender.all=true and MOZ_WEBRENDER=1
no longer disables Software WebRender. It will still prefer (Hardware)
WebRender but we want to allow fallback to Software WebRender for
configurations that forced WebRender on.

We have noticed that a sizeable number of Fenix users are not getting
webrender when they should be. On desktop the existing
gfx.feature.webrender telemetry probe is used to determine why
webrender is not enabled. Expose this to geckoview_streaming telemetry
so we can tell the same for Fenix users.

In bug 1676474 an issue was reported regarding partial present on
Mali-G77 devices. This was introduced in bug 1675159, which refactored
some partial present logic and shifted the order of some OpenGL calls
around. As a precaution, we disabled the feature on all Mali-Gxx
devices.
The bug seems to occur when eglSetDamageRegion is called after
rendering to an offscreen render target (in this case due to texture
cache or GPU cache updates), but without the driver being flushed in
some way. This appears to be a bug in the Mali driver.
This patch moves the eglSetDamageRegion call back to its original
location -- after all offscreen render targets have been rendered,
immediately before rendering to the main framebuffer -- which fixes
the issue. It also re-enables the feature on all Mali-Gxx devices.

The main-thread requirements for DXVA appear to have been needed when we initialized a crash guard. We now only run DXVA in the GPU and RDD processes, which don't support crash guards. This removes the main thread dispatch and the crashguard code, and enforces that we're in the GPU/RDD process to init DXVA.
This also removes the DLL blocklist code. This was disabled via pref when in the GPU process, which should be the majority of the time. In rare cases we would have been running DXVA in the RDD process (on older win7 when the GPU process isn't available). In these cases we can just do the same as the GPU process, allowing crashes and recovering from them (and disabling DXVA).
