Layers are added and removed dynamically on the Map thread when we use shape
annotations and we are iterating style.layers on the Worker thread without
any lock.
Now when we create a [Live|Vector]TileData at the Map thread we give it
a layers list (instead of the Style) and [Live|Vector]TileData will ultimately
make a copy of this list (on the Map thread, so no concurrency with
adding shape annotations).
The copy should be relatively cheap because we are using a shared pointer
for storing the layers on the list.
When processing a layer, we request the dependencies of all the
SymbolBuckets even if we are not processing it completely.
By doing that we are now requesting glyphs in parallel instead of
sequentially as we were doing before.
This patch is also simplifying the SymbolBucket creation code by getting
rid of the ugly "needsResources" return value passed by reference as
argument.
In order to calculate the collision correctly, the layer ordering
matters. Because of that, when we find the first incomplete symbol
bucket, we stop processing any furter SymbolBucket.
The side effect of this change is, if the first SymbolBucket is the
last to receive its resources, we won't see any label at all on
the screen until the last moment, when everything will be draw at
once.
We keep the Collision object alive longer because we need it
for the SymbolBuckets yet to be created in case more data
resources arrive. When the tile is no longer needed or if it
is completely parsed or obsolete (i.e. in a immutable state)
we throw the Collision object away.
Also add a virtual setState() method to give subclasses a chance
to intercept the change of state. This will be used by VectorTileData
to release resources when the TileData becomes immutable.
For now, the buckets depending on Glyphs that are not yet available
are simply not created (or created and discarded). In the future
we could refactor the code to not create the bucket at all or put
the bucket in a suspended state until the glyph range is available.
This change will add a new state to the tile called "partial" which
is a state where the tile can be rendered but some information might
be missing.
For now we skip the SymbolBucket if the Sprites are not loaded (will
also do the same for the glyphs in the future). When the Sprites are
finally loaded, we trigger another update, this time the Tile will
get completely re-rendered and change the state to "parsed".
This is the first concrete step to remove promises from the parsing
pipeline. Buckets depending on the Sprite (i.e. SymbolBucket) won't
be created if the Sprite is not loaded yet. When the Sprite finally gets
loaded, it will fire a signal that will ultimately trigger a reparse.
We still have to expose the Sprite to the Map object as it is needed
for getting offset pixels for annotation symbols, but we can probably
improve that.
