Prevent check failures in AXSelection resulting from DOM mutations

When AXSelection::Select is called to set the caret in an unfocused
input, FrameSelection::DidSetSelectionDeprecated focuses the node by
default. If this focus event happens to trigger a DOM mutation, the DOM
tree version associated with the selection will not match the version
associated with the document. As a result, when AXSelection::Select
goes to cache the selection range, the DCHECK for this condition in
SelectionTemplate<Strategy>::AssertValid fails.

We can stop this condition from happening by using the same logic in
FrameSelection::SetSelection, namely call SetSelectionDeprecated and
if true, then call DidSetSelectionDeprecated -- but only after we have
cached the selection range.

If instead the DOM mutation is a consequence of the selection itself,
there will be a similar check failures, both for the DOM tree version
and the fact that layout is needed. Therefore, if a layout is pending
immediately after we dispatch the selection start, update the layout,
the AXPositions, and our stored DOM tree and Style versions.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure .

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.
