1626822 - Add a way to enable WebRender without GPU process on Windows

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics: WebRender, enhancement)

Description

[Sotaro Ikeda [:sotaro]]

On Windows, WebRender is used only when GPU process is enabled. It is because ANGLE did not work when WebRender and WebGL uses ANGLE. But there is a case that we want to enable WebRender without GPU process for testing.
