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.
- Update protobuf to v23.4, to fix the cstdint error on Arch Linux, and
make some related changes:
- Silence additional compiler warnings for the new protobuf
- Update absl to 20230125.3, to support the protobuf update, and make
some related changes:
- Silence additional compiler warnings for the new protobuf
- Replace GOOGLE_CHECK_OK with ABSL_CHECK_OK
- Replace GUARDED_BY with ABSL_GUARDED_BY
- Update other instances of cstdint missing in our own code
- Always pull the latest docker images, to avoid stale results when your
workstation has pulled an older image at the same label
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.
</details>
<b>Required to build:</b>
- CMake >= 3.16

gflags)
- Port pssh-box.py
- Port main test targets (packager_test.py and packager_app.py)

- Remove any remaining refs to gclient, depot_tools, ninja
- Update and complete release workflows using release-please

Issue #346 (Switch to abseil)
Issue #1047 (New build system)
The generate_version_string script was only producing correct results
in python 2, not python 3. The gyp file that references it explicitly
runs it in python3. The shebang line of the script has been updated
to match. The script itself has been updated such that it now works
correctly in both python2 and python3.
Scripts that are only used as modules (not executed directly) have had
their shebang lines removed.
This fixes CI failures on GitHub Actions.

The newest pylint release complained about several issues that the
older release did not. This resolves those issues:
- removes unneeded "u" prefix from strings
- adds "encoding" parameter for all open() calls
- because "encoding" is a python3-only parameter, use python3 in all
the scripts that we control
Unfortunately, python2 is required for any scripts that import modules
from the ancient Chromium build system we're using (referenced by
DEPS), as well as kokoro scripts.

Internal CI systems and the new GitHub CI system were out of sync,
with the external system not doing any linting. Further, the internal
system was using an internal-only linter for Python.
This creates a script for Python linting based on the open-source
pylint tool, checks in the Google Style Guide's pylintrc file, creates
a custom action for linting and adds it to the existing workflows,
fixes pre-existing linter errors in Python scripts, and updates pylint
overrides.

Seeing some failures on some platforms when compiled with clang
disabled:
GYP_DEFINES="clang=0" gclient runhooks
Several changes to make it work:
1. Mark packager code with packager_code=1 in GYP definitions.
2. Disable a few checks in non-packager code, which we do not have
direct control: dangling-else, deprecated-declarations,
unused-function
3. Fix the relevant errors in packager code.
4. Revert HAVE_STROPTS_H in curl config which is not available in
all linux distributions.

Shared libpackager can be built by setting libpackager_type to
shared_library, e.g.
GYP_DEFINES='libpackager_type=shared_library' gclient runhooks
ninja -C out/Debug
will generate libpackager.so in out/Debug/lib directory.
Here is a few other changes to make shared_library builds and
tests pass:
- Add several test parameters to packager.h, which is needed for
testing.
- Create a protoc.gypi from build/protoc.gypi but depending on
protobuf_full_do_not_use instead of protobuf_lite, since we need
protobuf_full_do_not_use for text parsing and generation of media
info proto. Somehow shared_library build does not allow mixed use
of protobuf_full_do_not_use and protobuf_lite.
- Remove the use of LazyInstance in version/version.cc and use static
variable directly. This is because LazyInstance needs AtExitManager
which may not be easy to setup when calling GetVersion.
- Allow skipping testPackageWvmInputWithoutStrippingParameterSetNalus
with flag --shared_library, which is needed as shared_library build
does not support --strip_parameter_set_nalus flag yet.
Fixes#227

For mp4 outputs, a metadata box with version information is added to
moov box.
For mpd outputs, a text comment with version information is added in
the beginning of mpd file.
