This is needed in part 3 to update WebRenderTextLayer::RenderLayer, so
that it no longer assumes the parent container layer has pushed a
stacking context, and instead explicitly uses the StackingContextHelper.

First, hook the Layer's ClearAnimation API to delete unnecessary
animations in next layer transaction. Second, add another async
DeleteCompositorAnimations API to delete animations on the compositor,
especially calling this API before WebRenderLayerManager got destroyed.

Animations in content side could be removed easily by changing CSS, but the
CompositorAnimationStorage in parent side doesn't get updated. Therefore,
we store the layer's CompositorAnimationsId before layer is destroyed in
WebRenderLayerManager and then send out these discarded ids to parent on
the next layer transaction.

This is a largely uninteresting patch that just uses the DisplayListBuilder
directly. A wonderful cleanup patch will come after this. One of the more
interesting pieces is the use of PushBuiltDisplayList. This is needed for
handling empty transactions. See https://github.com/servo/webrender/pull/934
for more info.
The overall architecture here is that we add a new layers type, LAYERS_WR,
which can be used in place of client layers. The WebRenderLayerManager, in
the EndTransaction call, paints content into images and ships them over the
PWebRenderBridge to the compositor thread. The WebRenderBridgeParent code on
the compositor side talks to WebRender via the API in webrender.h.
