Previously, when there was a reactive object in the prototype chain of a
different object, it would get notified of the first write to a property
that existed on the reactive object but did not yet exist on the other
object, despite the value of that property not actually getting written
to the reactive and hence the value not getting changed.
This was caused by the fact that we assumed that Reflect.set would set
the value on the target, when in fact, the value is set on the object
that underlies the `receiver`. When a reactive object is part of the
prototype chain, the first write on a key triggers the set trap but the
receiver is not the reactive object, and so Reflect.set doesn't modify
the target, but adds the new key to the object that's lower in the
prototype chain.
This commit fixes that by actually reading the value from the target
instead of assuming that it was changed by Reflect.set
This commit also removes the special symbols SKIP and TARGET, as there
is no reliable way to check whether these keys are present on the object
itself or on its prototype chain, which can cause issue when trying to
create reactive objects from objects with other reactive objects in
their prototype chain, or to create reactive objects from objects with
non-reactive objects in their prototype chain. To solve this problem, we
simply use a WeakMap that maps reactives to their targets, and a WeakSet
that contains all skipped objects.
Previously, when trying to mount a portal into a target that would be
mounted in the same render as the portal itself, the portal content
could not be mounted correctly. In a previous attempt to fix it, a
mistake was made while writing the test causing us to incorrectly
believe in now worked, when in fact, it would just move the portal
content to the end of its parent but without changing it.
This commit fixes the issue by making the `moveBeforeDOMNode` method of
VNodes accept a second optional parameter which is the parent in which
the element should be moved, defaulting to the current parent. This
results in identical behaviour when a parent is not specified, but when
it is, the VNode is "reparented" to the passed parent, which is what is
now done by the Portal
Currently, the `moveBefore` method on VNodes assumes that the `other`
VNode it receives is of the same type, and that the entire VNode tree
below that other VNode has the exact same structure. While this is
correct in most cases, it breaks down when there is a VToggler somewhere
in the VNode tree, as the structure below a VToggler can be very
different from the structure below another VToggler that was created
from the same compiled code. For example, two iterations of a t-foreach
that contains a <t t-component="..."/> may spawn different components,
and different components obviously have different structures.
One way to fix this is to remove the assumption that the structure of
the `this` block tree in moveBefore is the same as the structure
of the `other` block tree, and instead, always give the concrete DOM
node before which we want to move the current VNode instead of giving it
a VNode and an afterNode as a fallback. One problem with this solution
is that it degrades performance in the "standard" case, where a
t-foreach contains no VToggler anywhere in its block tree, as retrieving
the first concrete DOM node requires calling firstNode() which
recursively traverses the entire tree.
To avoid this performance penalty in the standard case, we opt to only
go down this route whenever we encounter a VToggler when calling
`moveBefore`. This requires that we maintain two separate methods, one
to move a VNode before another VNode of assumed similar structure, which
is basically the current implementation of `moveBefore` for all VNode
types except VToggler, and one implementation that moves a VNode before
a concrete DOM node. This method needs to be implemented for all VNode
types, as all VNode types can be descendants of a VToggler. This method
will only be called from one place: the `moveBeforeVNode` method of the
toggler, which is the point where we realize that the assumption of
identical structure breaks down.

This commit makes it so that when an error occurs in an owl app and none
of the registered error handlers are able to handle it, we rethrow the
error instead of just logging it to the console and swallowing it. This
allows users of owl to handle errors that happen in owl applications by
using event listeners for error and unhandledrejection events on the
window.
This commit makes all errors thrown in owl use a custom error class. The
main point of this is to always wrap user-code errors that happen during
the owl lifecycle so that they can be treated uniformly in onError by
checking the cause property, and also allows user code to differenciate
owl errors from non-owl errors reliably at runtime.
Before this commit, Owl had a bad interaction with the static
defaultProps code. The props comparison would be done with the new props
object (unmodified) and the current props object (with default props
applied), so the comparison would always return false, which in turn,
causes additional useless renderings.
This commit modifies component node to keep a reference to the
(unmodified) props object so we can compare it as expected.
