Summary

Element timing and LCP entries have a "renderTime" attribute, aligned with the 
first frame in which an image or text was painted. This attribute is currently 
guarded for cross-origin images by requiring a "Timing-Allow-Origin" header on 
the image resource. However, that restriction is easy to work around (eg by 
displaying a same-origin and cross-origin image in the same frame). Since this 
has been a source of confusion, we instead plan to remove this restriction, and 
instead coarsen all render times by 4ms when the document is not 
cross-origin-isolated. This is seemingly coarse enough to avoid leaking any 
useful decoding-time information about cross-origin images.

Motivation

People using the LCP/element-timing APIs are currently utterly confused about 
this, it comes up frequently. Zeroing the renderTime doesn't make a lot of 
security sense, so the confusion can be solved while providing a more suitable 
mitigation security-wise.
