In #19873, we completely disabled compositor recycling. This has adverse effects in our tabbed app where switching tabs (i.e. `BrowserView`s) now results in a flicker because we now also switch compositors. To fix this without regressing the original fix, we now recycle the compositor when the view is removed from a window. This situation can only happen with `BrowserView`s and the common case with `BrowserWindow` is unaffected.

Subject: fix: disabling compositor recycling
|
|
|
|
Compositor recycling is useful for Chrome because there can be many tabs and spinning up a compositor for each one would be costly. In practice, Chrome uses the parent compositor code path of browser_compositor_view_mac.mm; the NSView of each tab is detached when it's hidden and attached when it's shown. For Electron, there is no parent compositor, so we're forced into the "own compositor" code path, which seems to be non-optimal and pretty ruthless in terms of the release of resources. Electron has no real concept of multiple tabs per window, so it should be okay to disable this ruthless recycling altogether in Electron.
