            Bug ID: 258758
           Summary: Restore Path cheap copying (refcount/COR PathStream)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

After 265569 at main, copying a Path with a PathStream impl results in cloning the PathStream, which might be large. This breaks the assumption of most of the existing code, that copying a Path is cheap because it's just refCounting a CGPathRef.

So we should restore cheap copy, and make the PathStream copy-on-write.
