Masayuki Nakano 398b556e90 Bug 1877513 - Make HTMLEditor deletes only preceding lines of right child block if the range starts from start of a line r=m_kato
Currently, the editor of Gecko always unwraps first line of the right child
block after deleting selected range when the range starts in a parent block
and ends in a child block.  This behavior is almost same as the other browsers,
but the other browsers deletes only preceding lines of the right child block
(i.e., without unwrapping the first line of the right child block) if the range
starts from start of a preceding line, for example, when deleting
`<div>abc<br>[def<p>g]hi<br>jkl`, Gecko moves "hi" to the parent `<div>`,
but the other browsers keeps it in the child `<p>`.

For emulating this special handling, we need to touch 2 paths.

One is `Backspace` when selection is collapsed at start of the child block.  In
this case, only when the preceding line is empty, i.e., there are 2 line breaks
(either `<br>` or `\n` in `white-space: pre-*`), the following break should
be deleted, but the child block should not be touched.

The other is, deleting when selection is not collapsed or `Delete` when
selection is collapsed at immediately before the child block.  In the latter
case, `HTMLEditor::HandleDeleteSelection` extends `Selection` using
`nsFrameSelection`.  Then, handle it with same path as deleting non-collapsed
range.

The former is handled with `HandleDeleteLineBreak` and
`ComputeRangeToDeleteLineBreak`.  The latter is handled with
`HandleDeleteNonCollapsedRange` and `ComputeRangeToDeleteNonCollapsedRange`.
The new handlers use the `ComputeRangeToDelete*`.  Therefore, `beforeinput`
reports exactly same range from `getTargetRanges`.  However, existing paths
do not use same approach and this patch makes `HandleDeleteNonCollapsedRange`
fall it back to `HandleDeleteNonCollapsedRange`.  Therefore, some `if` checks
in `HandleDeleteNonCollapsedRange` are ugly, but I have no better idea to
implement this smarter.
