Andrew Clark ebf9ae8579 useId (#22644)
* Add useId to dispatcher

* Initial useId implementation

Ids are base 32 strings whose binary representation corresponds to the
position of a node in a tree.

Every time the tree forks into multiple children, we add additional bits
to the left of the sequence that represent the position of the child
within the current level of children.

    00101       00010001011010101
    ╰─┬─╯       ╰───────┬───────╯
  Fork 5 of 20       Parent id

The leading 0s are important. In the above example, you only need 3 bits
to represent slot 5. However, you need 5 bits to represent all the forks
at the current level, so we must account for the empty bits at the end.

For this same reason, slots are 1-indexed instead of 0-indexed.
Otherwise, the zeroth id at a level would be indistinguishable from
its parent.

If a node has only one child, and does not materialize an id (i.e. does
not contain a useId hook), then we don't need to allocate any space in
the sequence. It's treated as a transparent indirection. For example,
these two trees produce the same ids:

<>                          <>
  <Indirection>               <A />
    <A />                     <B />
  </Indirection>            </>
  <B />
</>

However, we cannot skip any materializes an id. Otherwise, a parent id
that does not fork would be indistinguishable from its child id. For
example, this tree does not fork, but the parent and child must have
different ids.

<Parent>
  <Child />
</Parent>

To handle this scenario, every time we materialize an id, we allocate a
new level with a single slot. You can think of this as a fork with only
one prong, or an array of children with length 1.

It's possible for the the size of the sequence to exceed 32 bits, the
max size for bitwise operations. When this happens, we make more room by
converting the right part of the id to a string and storing it in an
overflow variable. We use a base 32 string representation, because 32 is
the largest power of 2 that is supported by toString(). We want the base
to be large so that the resulting ids are compact, and we want the base
to be a power of 2 because every log2(base) bits corresponds to a single
character, i.e. every log2(32) = 5 bits. That means we can lop bits off
the end 5 at a time without affecting the final result.

* Incremental hydration

Stores the tree context on the dehydrated Suspense boundary's state
object so it resume where it left off.

* Add useId to react-debug-tools

* Add selective hydration test

Demonstrates that selective hydration works and ids are preserved even
after subsequent client updates.

react-debug-tools

This is an experimental package for debugging React renderers.

Its API is not as stable as that of React, React Native, or React DOM, and does not follow the common versioning scheme.

Use it at your own risk.
