This change includes windows owned by the primary captured window in the
captured frames if these conditions are met:
1) The owned window (e.g. dialog) overlaps the primary window (in whole
or part)
2) The primary window is otherwise eligible for the crop-from-screen
path (CroppingWindowCapturer is being used, and other conditions in
ShouldUseScreenCapturer are met)
In practice, this means that dialog windows / message boxes are captured
in many cases where they aren't today. This seems beneficial to some
scenarios (e.g. demonstrating / recording how to do something, or
requesting help with something, that involves dialogs).
This is a logical revert of a change for https://crbug.com/webrtc/8062 .
There's some commentary in the newer bug that attempts to make a case
for revisiting that change. (In summary: cases where a dialog would be
substantialy clipped / partial seem relatively uncommon and have
workarounds. Clipping may already occur for menus & tooltips. Clipping
seems less surprising than complete absence.)
Changing the GA_ROOT flag back to GA_ROOTOWNER is sufficient to restore
the older behavior. The removal of the EnumChildWindows call is just a
minor optimization (it was unnecessary/superfluous, since every child
window would match the GA_ROOT check; dialogs are owned root windows,
not child windows).
Removing condition (2) above (capturing dialogs & other related
overlapping windows when not using the crop-from-screen path) is tracked
by https://crbug.com/980864 .
