It is common in Owl components to have anonymous function as props.
However, since each rendering create a different (but equivalent)
closure, Owl will consider the props different, so will update the child
component, but this is (often) not necessary.
This commit will help reduce the problem by introducing a new `.alike`
prop suffix, that will let Owl know that each version of that specific
prop should be considered the same, so, will be ignored by the props
comparison code.

A recent commit fixes the props validation code to make it work
regardless of the rendering context (important with the recent
t-call-context directive). Unfortunately, it then breaks props
validation through slots, because it assumed that the parent node in the
virtual node was the parent of the component, but it is not necessarily
true.
To fix this, we can use a simple property of the template functions:
they are bound to the current instance of the component, so we can
simply use "this"
The code for props validation assumed that the rendering context was a
component. This was actually true when it was written, but is no longer
true since t-call-context was introduced.
Because of that, it would crash when trying to access the internals of
the component, such as the static components object.
The fix is simple: instead of passing the context to the props
validation code, which can now be anything, we pass the component node,
which is guaranteed to give a reference to the component (and also to
the app). This also make the code slightly simpler.

Before this commit, the generated code for the component directive was
using the current context as the place to look for static informations
(such as the sub components). However, it is not entirely correct, since
the current context may be different than the current component (which
is easily accessed by using the this variable).
Also, while doing this, we fix some issues in the t-set directive, which
as calling lazy values with the wrong this.
This commit adds a warning when an async hook
(onWillUpdateProps/onWillStart) takes longer than 3 seconds, as these
hooks block the rendering and patching of the application, it is rarely
desirable and often a sign of a deadlock. This warning will contain the
stack trace of the call to the hook to help in debugging.
With this commit, component only render child
components if they have different props (shallow
equality). Otherwise, we trust the reactivity
system to make sure that all impacted components
are updated
This means that unrelated ids (eg the id of a template, variable or key)
not longer share the same incrementing counter, meaning that you no
longer see a variable named "v2" unless another variable "v1" was
generated previously, this is also true for block data.
Have a component which does a render in its onWillPatch, onPatched, onMounted hooks.
Before this commit, the result was incorrect: the second rendering was not taken into account.
After this commit, those renderings are correctly applied at the price of a delayed render when the fiber
is in a critical state.
t-out automatically escaped content when it is a string not marked
with the `markup` function
t-out renders the raw content if it is a Block, or if it has been marked
with the `markup` funtion.
t-esc has been kept since it is safe and is optimized to render text nodes.
all t-raw calls are in fact the same as t-out.
fine grained reactivity:
existing key in source changes --> only observer having read the key are notified
add/delete key in source changes --> all source observers are notified

Previously, when a component node had been created and destroyed, and
the corresponding component was then recreated, the destroyed node was
reused. This commit fixes that
This commit reintroduces some tests for the t-set directive and make
them pass. For that, it was necessary to adapt the qweb compiler in
order to get the following behaviors:
A t-set can affect parent contexts (up to the first parent tagged as
boundary) when the key changed is found in one of the parent contexts.
Some context are marked as boundaries in such a way that
- rendering contexts (e.g. components) cannot be modified via a t-set.
- a t-set in a t-call body or in a called template can never change a
context above the t-call context.
Code prettification has been done.
Snapshots have been modified.
