This work was done over ~80 individual commits in the `cmake` branch,
which are now being merged back into `main`. As a roll-up commit, it is
too big to be reviewable, but each change was reviewed individually in
context of the `cmake` branch. After this, the `cmake` branch will be
renamed `cmake-porting-history` and preserved.

This brings our default build config more in line with what is
necessary for some platforms anyway: using the system-installed
toolchain and sysroot to build everything.
We will no longer fetch source or binaries for any specific build
tools, such as libc++, clang, gold, binutils, or valgrind.
The main part of this change is the changing of default gyp settings
in gyp_packager.py. For this, a bug in gyp_packager.py had to be
fixed, in which similar GYP_DEFINE key names (such as clang and
host_clang) would conflict, causing some defaults not to be installed
properly.
In order to enable clang=0 by default, some changes had to be made in
common.gypi:
- compiler macros added to fix a compatibility issue between
Chromium's base/mac/ folder and the actual OSX SDK
- replaced clang_warning_flags variables with standard cflags
settings, plus xcode_settings for OSX
- turned off warnings-as-errors for non-shaka code, rather than
allow-listing specific warning types, since we can't actually fix
those warnings on any platform
- disabled two specific warnings in shaka code, both of which are
caused by headers from our non-shaka dependencies
Also, one warning (missing "override" keyword) has been fixed in
vod_media_info_dump_muxer_listener.h.
Although these changes were done to make building simpler on a wider
array of platforms (arm64, for example), it seems to make the build a
bit faster, too. For me, at least, on my main Linux workstation:
- "gclient sync" now runs 20-30% faster
- "ninja -C out/Release" now runs 5-13% faster
The following environment variables are no longer required:
- DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN
- MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
Documentation, Dockerfiles, and GitHub Actions workflows have been
updated to reflect this.
The following GYP_DEFINES are no longer required for anyone:
- clang=0
- host_clang=0
- clang_xcode=1
- use_allocator=none
- use_experimental_allocator_shim=0
Documentation, Dockerfiles, and GitHub Actions workflows have been
updated to reflect this.
The following repos are no longer dependencies in gclient:
- binutils
- clang
- gold
- libc++
- libc++abi
- valgrind
The following gclient hooks have been removed:
- clang
- mac_toolchain
- sysroot

Profiling can be enabled by setting profiling=1 in gyp, e.g.
GYP_DEFINES="profiling=1" gclient runhooks
To turn on heap profiling, use the HEAPPROFILE environment variable
to specify a filename for the heap profile dump, e.g.
HEAPPROFILE=/tmp/heapprofile out/Release/packager ...
To turn on cpu profiling, use the CPUPROFILE environment variable
to specify a filename for the cpu profile dump, e.g.
CPUPROFILE=/tmp/cpuprofile out/Release/packager ...
Note that profiling may not work for debug builds, so use release
build if possible.
See docs/linux_profiling.md for details.
This change will help identify and resolve problem behind Issue #61.
