OffscreenCanvas support in WebView

Project Member Reported by rjkroege@chromium.org, Jan 17 (5 days ago)

Issue description

from user lucasmeurer96@gmail.com:

"will the Android WebView eventually get OffscreenCanvas support?
The OffscreenCanvas demo (https://devnook.github.io/OffscreenCanvasDemo/keep-ui-responsive.html) doesn't seem to work in a WebView right now even though it works fine in Chrome (Tested with Chrome 71)."

fserb@ can you triage/confirm/etc.?

The reason offscreen canvas doesn't work is android webview does not support multiple clients. Android WebView needs a Viz-like architecture to support this.

Yes this depends on "viz for webview" project

Seems like this is a known work-item. Marking as available + feature.

Bo - is there a viz-for-webview bug we can block this on?
