            Bug ID: 273339
           Summary: FontCascadeFonts::primaryFont should work with a const
                    FontCascadeDescription
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Text
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

font-size-adjust from-font resolution was fixed by [1]. It now works correctly and it uses the primary font for resolution. However, this patch changed FontCascadeFonts::primaryFont to receive a mutable (non-const) FontCascadeDescription object, such that it could resolve the from-font reference after the primary font is resolved.


This means that now FontCascadeFonts::primaryFont does two different things:
a) resolving and caching a font as the primary font
b) resolving fromFont if necessary

The (a) part of primaryFont doesn't require a mutable FontCascadeDescription. We can update FontCascadeDescription to have a 
method for resolving font-size-adjust from font at the point where we own a mutable FontCascadeDescription instead.

This allows us to access the primaryFont itself from places where we only have access to a const FontCascadeDescription. This is for example, required for solving https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=273233, where we need to access primaryFont from FontCascadeFonts::glyphDataForVariant
