Crash Data

This bug was filed from the Socorro interface and is 
report bp-e1e8c65e-39e9-45de-9612-0526b0170921.

Just happened while watching a video and scrolling through a thread in twitter. Possibly something crashed or triggered a fallback?
This assertion comes from WR@a3c82e93d.
:kvark, Any idea for this assertion?

Unexpectedly colored glyph? Not sure, but in any case those asserts don't serve well for us, since unexpected pixel data is still technically not a showstopper for frame rendering. We should `error!` the observed inconsistencies (accumulated for all pixels, perhaps, instead of per-pixel) instead of the asserts.
Someone more familiar with OSX fonts may need to explain how we got those color values mismatching.

I can reproduce this with text-shadows on emoji, such as 

data:text/html,<html><head><meta charset="utf8"></head><body style="text-shadow: 0px 0px 1px black;">

This assert has been removed in https://github.com/servo/webrender/pull/1754 . For grayscale fonts, we just always use the red component now, without checking whether the green and blue components have the same value.
