chore: remove Polymer 1 DOM API and HTML import loading - #25145
Merged
Conversation
DomApi switched from the normal DOM API to a Polymer specific one when a global Polymer object reporting version 1.x was present. Polymer 1 was distributed as an HTML import (polymer-micro.html) and HTML imports can no longer be loaded: Dependency.Type only knows STYLESHEET, JAVASCRIPT, JS_MODULE and DYNAMIC_IMPORT, and Polymer 3 never defines a global Polymer object. The Polymer implementation was therefore never taken into use and DomApi.wrap always returned the node as is. As nothing requests HTML imports anymore, ResourceLoader.loadHtml and inlineHtml, the HTMLImports.whenReady plumbing they rely on and the rel="import" branch of the already loaded resource scan are removed as well.
