Seeking feedback: changing URLLoaderFactory dispatch in WebUI renderer process

[Alex Yang]

We are adding experimental infrastructure to allow WebUI renderer processes to load resources without needing to communicate with the browser process.

We would accomplish this by intercepting URL requests in the URLLoaderFactoryBundle and serving them in-process if possible. Here is the relevant section of the design document. There I have described two approaches to this interception. I have an implementation of the first approach in this CL.

If you have an opinion on this, please share your thoughts (on the two described approaches or an entirely different approach) in this thread or as a comment on the design document.

Thanks!
