This restores the default site isolation mode for Chromium on desktop
platforms. Unit tests have been updated to reflect the new behavior
expectations.
Known behavior changes in CEF are as follows:
- A spare renderer process may be created on initial browser creation or cross-
origin navigation. This spare process may be used with a future cross-origin
navigation or discarded on application shutdown. As a result
CefRenderProcessHandler::OnRenderThreadCreated, which is called shortly after
renderer process creation, can no longer be used to reliably transfer state
for the currently in-progress navigation. Unit tests have been updated to use
the CreateBrowser/OnBeforePopup |extra_info| value for transferring test state
to CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated which will be called in the
correct/expected renderer process.
- Cross-origin navigations will again receive a new renderer process, as
expected. This behavior had briefly regressed in M78 due to the
ProcessSharingWithDefaultSiteInstances feature becoming enabled by default.
- Cross-origin navigations initiated by calling LoadURL in the renderer process
will now crash that process with "bad IPC message" reason
INVALID_INITIATOR_ORIGIN (213). This is a security feature implemented in
Chromium.
- A DevTools browser created using CefBrowserHost::ShowDevTools will receive
the same CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated |extra_info| value that was
set via CreateBrowser/OnBeforePopup for the parent browser.
- Windows: 10.0.17763.0 SDK is now required.
- Mac: 10.13 SDK is now required.
- Removed CefRequestContext::ResolveHostCached which is no longer supported by Chromium.
