1912006 - Use OutputParser in var() tooltip to display values

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Inspector: Rules, enhancement)

Description

[Nicolas Chevobbe [:nchevobbe]]

At the moment, we show the different values in the regular text color
Parsing the values with the OutputParser could the legibility of the tooltip, so we'd have different colors for variable reference, color swatches, …
We should use it for:

• the "header", where we display --x = <value>
• the computed value
• the registered property initial value
• the starting-style value

For the header, it means we might need to refactor things a bit and not put --x = <value> directly in data-variable, but adds those items separately, and reconstruct the string in the tooltip. (which means we should handle the cases where the variable is not set too)

Re-use the OutputParser options from the declaration so we can have similar
results than in the Rules view.
