[ios] Fix sequence safety issue in ChromeActivityItemThumbnailGenerator

The ChromeActivityItemThumbnailGenerator instance may be deallocated on
a background thread managed by UIKit under certain circumstances. This
is unsafe because WebState is bound to the main UI thread sequence. It
thus crashed when the WebStateObserver was unregistered.

As the WebStateObserver was used to check for the destruction of the
WebState, it is simpler to use base::WeakPtr<web::WebState> which is
safe to destroy (but not access) on a background thread.

Add a unit test that dealloc a ChromeActivityItemThumbnailGenerator on
a background sequence, check that it failed with the old code and pass
with the new implementation.

Move the check for IsOffTheRecord() outside of the object initializer
as it allow to make the tests simpler (there is no need to create a
fake ChromeBrowserState).

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.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

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.

If you found a bug, please file it at https://crbug.com/new.
