[MacViewsBrowser] Janky screen updates when creating an NTP with a theme installed

Project Member Reported by shrike@chromium.org, Dec 6 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version: 65.0.3287.0
OS: macOS 10.12

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Install a theme such as https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/%D0%BF%D0%BB%D1%8F%D0%B6/pldjedicbnjmccbpbgbiddfbgilpgmgm?hl=en
(2) Create a new browser window or new tab

What is the expected result?
A new tab with the theme's background showing

What happens instead?
The new tab shows white before showing the theme image. Sometimes the Google logo will appear briefly in color, then switch to gray, then the background appears.

Might be related to  bug 21798 , maybe worth re-checking after that one's finally fixed for good (should be Really Soon Now).

Assigning to ccameron@ as this smells like a compositor issue that has already been addressed or will be addressed soon. CC'ing sdy@ as well.

This should be much better from two things
-  issue 840173 : unified compositor, so we have less work to do 
-  issue 845213 : UI GPU rasterization, so we do the remaining work faster

There is also one more piece of work which is coming down the pipe
- issue 848952: don't use CPU to clear GPU memory

Marking as fixed (it's much better on my machine) -- if this still feels slow, please re-open.
