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.

- Add logging flags in absl and connect them to glog (which expects
gflags)
- Port pssh-box.py

Issue #346 (Switch to abseil)
Issue #1047 (New build system)
The official, static-linked linux builds were crashing in their use of
getaddrinfo, which libcurl was configured to use. Both getaddrinfo
and all of its alternatives available in glibc fail with static
linking.
We can fix this by configuring libcurl to use libc-ares on Linux
instead. This allows us to keep the benefits of a statically-linked
Linux binary.
Closes#996

- Update curl to 7.57.0
- Roll clang, which is needed due to MacOS / XCode update
- Fixes and suppress compilation errors due to clang update
Fixes#285
Change-Id: Ibac3288c641861605c3c0500d34d27373e6eecfe
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.
Fixes#286Fixes#293

Create a new MacOSX configuration for curl:
- Add a curl_config.h created on MacOSX
- Add a find_curl_ca_bundle.sh that searches default folder from Homebrew and MacPorts for a ca bundle.
To find the files either install OpenSSL from Homebrew or MacPorts, or Curl from MacPorts.
Find curl_ca_bundle script is used by linux only. Move it out of
gyp and make sure it runs only in linux.
Also make zlib deps generic for all systems, not for linux only.
This is the first step of getting edash_packager builds on Windows
and Mac.

Fix "Problem with the SSL CA cert" issue @
https://github.com/google/edash-packager/issues/6. On Ubuntu, CURL_CA_BUNDLE
is located at "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt" while on CentOs, it is
located at "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt".
With this change, GYP scans the common appearing locations for SSL CA cert.
