Current Chromium DRT does not run a spellcheck except for Mac
and spellcheck-related tests are not usable. (See WebViewHost::spellCheck() for detail.)

Mac DRT uses MockSpellCheker class to do that check.
So using it would on Windows and Linux looks fine in general.
But there are concerns:

- A: If we simply enable MockSpellChecker on Windows/Linux, many pixel expectations under editing/* will get broken and massive rebaselinining will be required.
- B: If we add an API to DRT that enables/disables spellchecking, such rebaselining could be avoided. But porting such API to other ports will need hassle.

Any thoughts?
At this time I think A is preferable but its landing need care.
Your feedbacks and ideas are appreciated!
