The expression parser properly format an empty string into an empty
string. But then, this empty string was injected in the props object of
a component, and the compiled code looked like this:
let props5 = { val: };
So, in this case, we simply put undefined, since there are no props
value.

The way keys were handled in QWeb was mostly ok, but a little naive. It
is fine when we deal with a list of dom nodes, since the reconciliation
algorithm need only to be able to differentiate/reconcile nodes in that
list, but it is an issue with components, which needs to globally be
able to find themselves in their parent's children map.
Because of the way this was handled, there were situations were Owl
internal virtual dom would crash, since components wrongly assumed that
they were already rendered in a different place.
To fix this, we generalize the way keys are generated, by concatenating
all sub keys coming from each iteration loops.

Since t-call is now a function call, we need to properly handle the
internal key used to find previous components. If a t-call is inside a
t-foreach, then we need to transfer the key to the sub template.
Otherwise, each component in the subtemplate will be associated to the
same key, which means that it will lead to big issues: components are
destroyed and reused...

Before this commit, when template was t-call'ed and defined
t-component directive within it, there was a crash because extra.parent was never defined
After this commit, this use case works
While it is not tested, nor documented, the reference QWeb
implementation display the `false` value as "false". So, we have to
adapt the Owl implementation to match that behaviour.
At the same time, this commit uses 'let' instead of 'var' in various places,
to make the compiled code more consistant.
Before this commit, the handlers were bound to the current context,
which is often the component but not necessarily. In some cases, a sub
scope can be created (with t-foreach, or slots, or t-call), and the
context is actually an object with the actual component instance it its
prototype chain, but not the component.
- In some cases, we can simply inline a template key instead of assigning
it to a variable and then using that variable
- Add component name in generated code for components
This commit is a significant refactoring of the internal of QWeb. It
simplifies the way variables/scoping and slots interact together. The
main idea is that we use a simple scope object instead of a
context/var/scope object.
This commit also implement the actual correct QWeb semantic for the
t-call directive with a sub body. Before, we simply extracted the
variables from the body and injected them at the top of the sub
template. We now simply compile the body before the sub template.
This is a joint work with Lucas (lpe).

A component can now be mounted in different positions: either 'before' (at
the start), 'after' (at the end), or 'attach' (take possession of a target
element)

Before this commit, when manually unmounting the portal
or one of its parents, the teleported elements were not cleaned
and stayed teleported forever
After this commit, the teleported content is brought back and
unmounted much like any component
closes#531
This is a really interesting problem: there was a situation where a
component would not have an event handler properly bound. The reason was
that we were in a situation where the scheduler task queue was flushed
at an unfortunate timing:
- parent component template is rendered
- subcomponent is prepared:
- sub component is willStarted
- it is rendered (so, fiber counter is set to 0)
- scheduler task queue is flushed => we patch the DOM
- the code registered in the __prepare.then(handler) is executed, which
add the createHook to the vnode (but after the dom is patched)
Usually, the last two steps happen in a different order, but in an
environment with connected components, we sometimes flush the task queue
at various moments, so some code could be executed between the end of
__prepare and the registered handler.
The fix is interesting: we give a callback to the __prepare function
instead of registering a .then handler to the deferred. This callback
is then guaranteed to be called at exactly the proper timing.
Thanks seb for the hard work of finding the root cause of this issue

The component Portal is used to teleport the content
in its slot as a child of an element
somewhere else in the DOM, usually 'body'
It is designed to be transparent and is just here to do the teleportation task
OwlEvents (with method `Component.trigger`) are redirected from
any Component instanciated within the Portal (and therefore teleported
somewhere else) to the place it would have been without teleportation
i.e. they are re-triggered onto the Portal root node

Have a t-call having a t-raw="0"
that call is made to a template of the same form
i.e. itself as a t-call t-raw="0" structure
Before this commit, there was recursion crash
This was because the caller to which a t-raw="0" referred to
was incorrect. The caller here is the node which makes the t-call.
In particular, the caller was always set to last caller of the context
After this commit, there is no crash and this imbrication
of t-call and t-raw="0" is well rendered.
To sum up, we count the recursive calls to t-raw="0" and fetch
the caller in the context accordingly
