#46919: refactor: remove some NativeWindow public API
Merged
Description of Change
Small refactor to make some incidentally-public API either protected or private
- Remove NativeWindow::background_material(): it was only used in one place and that's in a constNativeWindowmethod, so remove the getter and just reference the field directly instead.
- Remove NativeWindow::vibrancy(): same as above.
- Make NativeWindow::set_has_frame()protected because it's only needed by subclasses.
- Make NativeWindow::titlebar_overlay_height_private. Clients should use the getter & setter.
- Have NativeWindowunfriendapi::BrowserView; this hasn't been needed since 2022
Checklist
