* chore: fix cpplint 'include_what_you_use' warnings
Typically by including <memory>, <utility> etc.
* chore: fix 'static/global string constant' warning
Use C style strings instead of std::string.
Style guide forbids non-trivial static / global variables. https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Static_and_Global_Variables
/home/charles/electron/electron-gn/src/electron/script/cpplint.js
* refactor: remove global string variables.
Fix 'global string variables are not permitted' linter warnings
by using the base::NoDestructor<> wrapper to make it explicit that
these variables are never destroyed.
The style guide's take on globals with nontrivial destructors:

- To implement callback for async controls
* Add `net.isLogging` & optional callback param for `net.stopLogging()`
* Fix small regression on --log-net-log
--log-net-log should work again
* Error on empty file path
* Only start with valid file path

* Update copyright
* Update error message
* Juggle file path string types
* Make it possible to disable a module for a renderer
* Put DesktopCapturer API under a build flag
The name is "enable_desktop_capturer".
Enabled by default.
* Don't use JSON to send the result of `ipcRenderer.sendSync`.
- Change the return type of AtomViewHostMsg_Message_Sync from `base::string16`
to `base::ListValue`
- Adjust lib/browser/api/web-contents.js and /lib/renderer/api/ipc-renderer.js
to wrap/unwrap return values to/from array, instead of
serializing/deserializing JSON.
This change can greatly improve `ipcRenderer.sendSync` calls where the return
value contains Buffer instances, because those are converted to Array before
being serialized to JSON(which has no efficient way of representing byte
arrays).
A simple benchmark where remote.require('fs') was used to read a 16mb file got
at least 5x faster, not to mention it used a lot less memory. This difference
tends increases with larger buffers.
* Don't base64 encode Buffers

Right now, `<webview>` is the only way to embed additional content in a
`BrowserWindow`. Unfortunately `<webview>` suffers from a [number of
problems](https://github.com/electron/electron/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue%20is%3Aopen%20label%3Awebview%20).
To make matters worse, many of these are upstream Chromium bugs instead
of Electron-specific bugs.
For us at [Figma](https://www.figma.com), the main issue is very slow
performance.
Despite the upstream improvements to `<webview>` through the OOPIF work, it is
probable that there will continue to be `<webview>`-specific bugs in the
future.
Therefore, this introduces a `<webview>` alternative to called `BrowserView`,
which...
- is a thin wrapper around `api::WebContents` (so bugs in `BrowserView` will
likely also be bugs in `BrowserWindow` web contents)
- is instantiated in the main process like `BrowserWindow` (and unlike
`<webview>`, which lives in the DOM of a `BrowserWindow` web contents)
- needs to be added to a `BrowserWindow` to display something on the screen
This implements the most basic API. The API is expected to evolve and change in
the near future and has consequently been marked as experimental. Please do not
use this API in production unless you are prepared to deal with breaking
changes.
In the future, we will want to change the API to support multiple
`BrowserView`s per window. We will also want to consider z-ordering
auto-resizing, and possibly even nested views.
