[Gnash-commit] [bug #42395] No respons from panopticlick site when gnash is activated

[Nutchanon Wetchasit]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #42395 (project gnash):

Patch included (partially fixes this bug), see patch #8721.

This patch fixes following issues:
* Gnash's `GetVariable()` interface passed values in their original type
rather than string.
* Gnash didn't pass some variable types like Infinity Number, NaN Number,
Array, and Object through `GetVariable()` properly (and crashed). 

After applied the patch, running `getvariable.html` on browser with Gnash
results in this output:
+verbose+
Flash's string_variable: type=string, value=Hello!
Flash's integer_variable: type=string, value=1234
Flash's float_variable: type=string, value=1234.5678
Flash's infinite_variable: type=string, value=Infinity
Flash's neginfinite_variable: type=string, value=-Infinity
Flash's nan_variable: type=string, value=NaN
Flash's boolean_variable: type=string, value=true
Flash's undefined_variable: type=object, value=null
Flash's nonexistent_variable: type=object, value=null
Flash's null_variable: type=string, value=null
Flash's array_variable: type=string,
value=The,quick,brown,fox,jumps,over,the,lazy,dog
Flash's object_variable: type=string, value=[object Object]
-verbose-

You'd see that there's no crash, and result is nearly identical to Adobe
Flash.
The exception is an undefined variable case, which gives an object `null`
instead of a string "undefined" due to Gnash's limitation.


Gnash: 0.8.11dev (patched against git 88f86a3 19-Aug-2015) NPAPI
Adobe Flash Player: 11.2 r202 (11.2.202.491) NPAPI binary
