This allows the user to store custom search engines via about:settings.
Custom engines will be displayed below the builtin engines in the drop-
down to select the default engine.
A couple of edge cases here:
1. We currently reject a custom engine if one with the same name already
exists. In the future, we should allow editing custom engines.
2. If a custom engine which was the default engine is removed, we will
disable search rather than falling back to any other engine.
This implements a setting to change the languages provided to websites
from `navigator.language(s)` and the `Accept-Language` header. Whereas
the existing Qt settings dialog allows users to type their language of
choice, this setting allows users to select from a predefined list of
languages. They may choose any number of languages and their preferred
order.
This patch only implements the persisted settings and their UI. It does
not integrate the choses languages into the WebContent process.
This implements an autocomplete engine inside LibWebView, to replace the
engine currently used by Qt. Whereas Qt uses the Qt Network framework to
perform autocomplete requests, LibWebView uses RequestServer. This moves
downloading this untrusted data out of the browser process.
This patch only implements the persisted settings and their UI. It does
not integrate this engine into the browser UI.
The idea with the UI here is that it will serve as a generic component
for all site settings, such as autoplay, notifications, etc. When the
site settings dialog is opened, it is filled with the requested setting
data, and messages sent to the browser process are based on the setting.
This patch only implements the UI and persisted settings. It does not
apply autoplay changes to the WebContent process.
This adds a WebView::Settings class to own persistent browser settings.
In this first pass, it now owns the new tab page URL and search engine
settings.
For simplicitly, we currently use a JSON format for these settings. They
are stored alongside the cookie database. As of this commit, the saved
JSON will have the form:
{
"newTabPageURL": "about:blank",
"searchEngine": {
"name": "Google"
}
}
(The search engine is an object to allow room for a future patch to
implement custom search engine URLs.)
For Qt, this replaces the management of these particular settings in the
Qt settings UI. We will have an internal browser page to control these
settings instead. In the future, we will want to port all settings to
this new class. We will also want to allow UI-specific settings (such as
whether the hamburger menu is displayed in Qt).
