///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// BrowsingInstance class
//
// A browsing instance corresponds to the notion of a "unit of related browsing
// contexts" in the HTML 5 spec. Intuitively, it represents a collection of
// tabs and frames that can have script connections to each other. In that
// sense, it reflects the user interface, and not the contents of the tabs and
// frames.
//
// We further subdivide a BrowsingInstance into SiteInstances, which represent
// the documents within each BrowsingInstance that are from the same site and
// thus can have script access to each other. Different SiteInstances can
// safely run in different processes, because their documents cannot access
// each other's contents (due to the same origin policy).
//
// It is important to only have one SiteInstance per site within a given
// BrowsingInstance. This is because any two documents from the same site
// might be able to script each other if they are in the same BrowsingInstance.
// Thus, they must be rendered in the same process.
//
// A BrowsingInstance is live as long as any SiteInstance has a reference to
// it. A SiteInstance is live as long as any NavigationEntry or RenderViewHost
// have references to it. Because both classes are RefCounted, they do not
// need to be manually deleted.
//
// BrowsingInstance has no public members, as it is designed to be
// visible only from the SiteInstance class. To get a new
// SiteInstance that is part of the same BrowsingInstance, use
// SiteInstance::GetRelatedSiteInstance. Because of this,
// BrowsingInstances and SiteInstances are tested together in
// site_instance_unittest.cc.
