Reimplement accessibility of web content by caching the entire
accessibility tree in the browser process. Adds new RPCs for a browser tab to request accessibility info from a renderer; the renderer responds with a complete tree of accessibility metadata for the entire DOM, which is then cached in the RenderWidgetHostView. This part is cross-platform and will help with accessibility on both Windows and Mac OS X. For Windows, MSAA support for web content has been rewritten to use this new cache. Tested in JAWS and NVDA screen readers. Using Chrome with a screen reader is now fast and stable, unlike the previous implementation. However, note that most advanced functionality is still not supported, and much work remains to make Chrome work well with a screen reader. This is a necessary step to improve stability first.
