DevTools test "devtools/client/inspector/computed/test/browser_computed_pseudo-element_01.js" is failing because getComputedStyle for pseudo-elements in Stylo appears to flip flop between returning `top` in % vs. px.

I'll attach a reduced reftest for this case.
It appears that when nsComputedDOMStyle fully resolves the style, we get the expected px value.  However, if it uses the cached style context, we can get % value instead.

I'll try to trace down why the cached value changes to %.

So it indeed is because of that line I mentioned, but the bug is also present in Gecko, as can be shown on the following test-case, it's just that stylo is more conservative re-resolving pseudo-element styles.

After talking with jryans I'll take this bug :)

Pretty sure this is a regression since this was introduced.

I wonder why do we need to clear the current style sources after each GetPropertyValue call? Shouldn't the restyle generation check take care of that?

The question is nonsense, frames can go away with DOM mutations apart from restyles, so you really don't want a stale pointer there.

Bug 1381083: Don't hold the style context if we had a frame and re-resolved the style.

Nice find!

Can you update the comment here to point out that we need to clear the style context if it was resolved due to being inside a pseudo?

Feel free to just move this to the top of the function, so we don't need to record `hadFrame`.
