Andrew Clark 0131d0cff4 Check if suspensey instance resolves in immediate task (#26427)
When rendering a suspensey resource that we haven't seen before, it may
have loaded in the background while we were rendering. We should yield
to the main thread to see if the load event fires in an immediate task.

For example, if the resource for a link element has already loaded, its
load event will fire in a task right after React yields to the main
thread. Because the continuation task is not scheduled until right
before React yields, the load event will ping React before it resumes.

If this happens, we can resume rendering without showing a fallback.

I don't think this matters much for images, because the `completed`
property tells us whether the image has loaded, and during a non-urgent
render, we never block the main thread for more than 5ms at a time (for
now — we might increase this in the future). It matters more for
stylesheets because the only way to check if it has loaded is by
listening for the load event.

This is essentially the same trick that `use` does for userspace
promises, but a bit simpler because we don't need to replay the host
component's begin phase; the work-in-progress fiber already completed,
so we can just continue onto the next sibling without any additional
work.

As part of this change, I split the `shouldSuspendCommit` host config
method into separate `maySuspendCommit` and `preloadInstance` methods.
Previously `shouldSuspendCommit` was used for both.

This raised a question of whether we should preload resources during a
synchronous render. My initial instinct was that we shouldn't, because
we're going to synchronously block the main thread until the resource is
inserted into the DOM, anyway. But I wonder if the browser is able to
initiate the preload even while the main thread is blocked. It's
probably a micro-optimization either way because most resources will be
loaded during transitions, not urgent renders.

react-test-renderer

This package provides an experimental React renderer that can be used to render React components to pure JavaScript objects, without depending on the DOM or a native mobile environment.

Essentially, this package makes it easy to grab a snapshot of the "DOM tree" rendered by a React DOM or React Native component without using a browser or jsdom.

Documentation:

https://reactjs.org/docs/test-renderer.html

Usage:

const ReactTestRenderer = require('react-test-renderer');

const renderer = ReactTestRenderer.create(
  <Link page="https://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</Link>
);

console.log(renderer.toJSON());
// { type: 'a',
//   props: { href: 'https://www.facebook.com/' },
//   children: [ 'Facebook' ] }

You can also use Jest's snapshot testing feature to automatically save a copy of the JSON tree to a file and check in your tests that it hasn't changed: https://jestjs.io/blog/2016/07/27/jest-14.html.
