Reorder headers to follow the Google C++ Style Guide:
> In dir/foo.cc or dir/foo_test.cc:
>
> 1. dir2/foo2.h.
> 2. A blank line
> 3. C system headers (more precisely: headers in angle brackets with
the .h extension), e.g., <unistd.h>, <stdlib.h>.
> 4. A blank line
> 5. C++ standard library headers (without file extension), e.g.,
<algorithm>, <cstddef>.
> 6. A blank line
> 7. Other libraries' .h files.
> 8. A blank line
> 9. Your project's .h files.

This feeds into efforts to create a working install target.
The order of headers is still funky, and was "fixed" by clang-format,
but in a way that doesn't exactly align with the style guide. Further
cleanup of header order is coming in a follow-up PR.
Related to issue #1047
After this it should be possible to build a working `packager` application from the `cmake` branch. Some further logging improvements may be needed to get full parity with the `main` branch in terms of ability to do verbose debug logging, but other than that everything is expected to work.
All gtest-based tests should now use add_gtest. Results from these tests
will be surfaced more prominently in GitHub Actions. Before this, it was
hard to find test failures in the log.
For some reason, the status util unittest was in media/base/ instead of
status/
The broken headers in the status library were not obviously broken until
media/base/ porting started, and they were used for the first time.
Issue #1047 (CMake porting)
There are a lot of changes in this first phase, because there was a
lot of infrastructure required to get some meaningful amount of
porting done. Future PRs should be simpler.
<b>Summary of changes:</b><details>
- Remove old deps:
- boringssl (replaced with mbedtls, lighter, easier to build)
- gflags (replaced with absl::flags)
- Chromium build tools
- New deps to replace parts of Chromium base:
- abseil-cpp
- glog
- nlohmann::json (for tests only)
- Submodules, updates, and CMake build rules for third-party
libraries:
- curl
- gmock/gtest
- Ported internal libraries and their tests by removing Chromium deps
and adding CMake build rules:
- file (now using C++17 filesystem APIs)
- license_notice
- status
- version
- Test improvements
- Removed file tests that can never be re-enabled
- Re-enabled all other disabled file tests
- Debug JSON values when HTTP tests fail
- Fixed chunked-encoding issues in HTTP tests
- Updated and refactored Dockerfiles testing
- All docker files working, with OS versions updated to meet the
new tool requirements
- Local docker builds no longer write files to your working
directory as root
- Local docker builds can now be run in parallel without clobbering
each others' build outputs
- DEBUG=1 can drop you into an interactive shell when a docker
build fails
- Updated and heavily refactored workflows and Dockerfiles
- All docker files now tested in parallel on GitHub, speeding up CI
- All common workflow components broken out and using workflow_call
instead of custom actions
- Self-hosted runners now optional, to make testing easier on forks
- CMake porting works-in-process can now be fully tested on GitHub
- Building ported libraries and passing ported tests on all three
platforms!
- CI hacks for macOS removed, now testing on macos-latest!
- Python2 no longer required! (Only Python3)
- Using strict build flags, treating all warnings as errors.

- Port main application
- Add logging flags in absl and connect them to glog (which expects
gflags)
