[meta] Minibrowser

[atbrakhi]

First version of minibrowser is here #29976 but there are more improvements we could do. This issue is the todo list for the improvements and new features.

• [x] Make sure we repaint while typing, even if servo is idle
  • done in #29976
• [x] Fix hit testing for links
  • done in #29976
• [x] Repainting is weird right now. For example, once we navigate to a new page, you need to do some mouse event for the location bar to reflect the current top-level URL (to trigger egui repaint).
  • done in #29976
• [x] Decide how to deduplicate clipboard-win 2.2.0 and 4.5.0
  • we can contribute a dependency update to clipboard
  • we can make the winit port drop clipboard in favour of arboard
    • done in #30274
• [ ] Add a help screen that documents the keyboard shortcuts in Browser::handle_key_from_window
• [x] Make CMD_OR_CONTROL+L focus the location bar when in minibrowser mode
  • done in #30105
• [x] Make return key equivalent to go button when location field is focused
  • done in #30126
• [ ] Make enter key equivalent to go button when location field is focused
  • needs changes in egui
• [ ] CursorMoved events in WR viewport area may result in extra egui/WR updates via EventResponse.repaint?
• [x] #30312
  • done in #30322
• [ ] #30331
• [ ] #30332
• [x] Add buttons to go back and forward
  • done in https://github.com/servo/servo/pull/30805
• [x] the location sometimes reverts to the old value while loading
  • done in #30518
• [x] #30341
  • [x] #30340
  • [x] #30342
  • [x] #30344
  • [x] done in #30343
• [x] #30360

Ah I see what you mean. When TWGL example is running, I had to click on the page area to reproduce.
